Passing Through Grey

David Shapiro

Tell me about a night that she had
To take her love away
She said it wouldn't work out
What reason should she stay
When the colour red of loving
Grows paler every day
From red to rose and fading
As green grass fades to hay
And the dawning shade of nothing
Seems coloured strangely grey

(One, two, three, four)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la, passing through grey)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la, passing through grey)
Tomorrow, perhaps, she'll change her mind and stay, hey, yeah
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la, passing through grey)
Passing through grey

See, the things that worked between us
One time were made of gold
No use to try and reach back
And change the new for old
Where once there was just calmness
I start to feel a breeze
The pastoral thoughts of sunshine
Slowly start to freeze
As memories of our life together
Bring me to my knees

(Two, three, four)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la, passing through grey)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la, passing through grey)
Tomorrow, perhaps, she'll change her mind and stay, hey, hey, yeah
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la, passing through grey)
Passing through grey, yeah

Baby, ooh, baby, listen to me
Baby, baby, listen to me
Don't take the colour out of my life
Oh, don't take the colour away, yay, hey
I guess I have to be strong now, oh yeah
Oh, oh, oh, baby
I don't, I don't, I don't feel strong, baby
I don't think I can make it
Oh, please, don't go away

(Sha-la, la-la-la-la, passing through grey)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la, passing through grey)
Tomorrow, perhaps, she'll change her mind and stay, hey, hey, yeah
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la passing, through grey)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la passing, through grey)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la passing, through grey)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la passing, through grey)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la passing, through grey)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la passing, through grey)
(Sha-la, la-la-la-la passing, through grey)
