Dave Mathews Band Grey Street Lyrics

Grey Street Lyrics

Oh, just sitting while she listens
She says I don't need this place
It
seems a million years she's stuck here
But says nothing of what she
thinks

She thinks, "Hey,
How did I come to this?
I dreamt
like anybody else one night
I would be a beautiful
princess."

But then the roads in the park fall
And then she rode
the line in
And the colors mix together to grey
And break me
out

Oh, when I'm indifferent
She prays to God most every
night
Although she swears He doesn't listen
There's hope in her that He
just might

She says, "I pray
But then my prayer fall on deaf
ears
I'm supposed to take it all myself
To get out of this
place."

She feels the lumps in the heart fall
And she rose up in
the back
She hears the cars scream out from outside
And she whispers
sometimes about this
But the colors mix together to grey
And wake me
up

Oh, he grows up living
He says take what you can from your
dreams
Make them real as anything
It takes the work out of the
courage

She said, "Please,
There's a crazy man standing outside
my door
I live on the corner of a dead end street
At the end of the
world."

Oh, and the rocks out in the heart fall
And she dreams
her way to life
And she knows no one will lift her
So she might as well
do it herself

And then bummed out and worried
Of leaving city
life
But all the colors mix together to grey
On Grey Street
On Grey
Street
To Grey Street

Oh, when it comes down in your loving
Oh,
well then baby it's right
You say you think you are nothing
No one else
will do it for you
Reach up and grab hold of the sunlight
When you are
waiting for what's right
You're holding on your Heaven
Won't leave you,
yeah, yeah...

And the colors mix together to grey
Wake me up, wake me
up, wake me up
To grey.
