Blue and grey
One day there was a girl who cried tears of pearls and her eyes were blue and green like none I've ever seen And she met a man that night who filled her with delight and he spoke in poetry and rhyme and she loved him in no time
But he changed and then soon he became jealous of her beauty and fame And he locked her away and he forced her to play songs that were blue, songs that were grey Yeah, yeah
So then this lonely girl had, had enough of her world so she climbed to the top of the tallest tower and stood there for way over an hour Until she decided she'd jump, so she jumped with a very loud thump And all of the neighbours, they came out and cried when they discovered that this poor girl had died And a boy, he just stood there and gasped at this beauty asleep on the grass Well, her eyes were like none he had seen except for the girls in his dreams
Then he changed and then soon he became depressed and very, very strange He'd lock himself away for days and days and play songs that were blue and play songs that were grey and play songs that reminded him of that day Yeah, yeah
One day, there was a girl who fell in love with a boy in a different world and she speaks to him at night, only in a certain light She wore white when he wore black and they were like a perfect match And though one was dead and one was alive Through many years, their love did survive
'Til time faded and soon they became both exactly the same and they both are floating in the sky singing their own lullaby of a song of them that reminds them of a past time a song that reminds them of a past day a song that is blue and a song that is grey a song that is blue and a song that is grey a song that is blue, a song that is grey
