music: A. Vandenberg, lyrics: R. Young)



There's a shadow in my life, between the black and white

And it's blocking out the light

I listened to what you said, it still echoes in my head

As I lie alone in bed



In the thickness of a line, there's a distance undefined

The confusion's got me blind



A dark shade of grey, tried to understand the things you say

As you throw it all away, yeah

It's a dark shade of grey, there's got to be another way

To hang on for one more day



So won't you please explain, why the sunshine turns to rain

Why the pleasure turns to pain

I need for you to say, when your heart began to stray

When the fires, they've all burned away



As I look back in my mind, could I really be so blind

I guess I, I guess I missed the signs



It's a dark shade of grey, tried to understand the things you say

As you throw it all away, yeah

Now it's a dark shade of grey, there's got to be another way

To hang on for one more day



(Solo)



Oh, I'm so blinded now



Well you know it's never clear, when emotions interfere

When you give in to the tears

In the dark it's hard to see, when a heart begins to bleed

It's got me, it's got me fallin' right down to my knees



Now it's a dark shade of grey, tried to understand the things you say

Don't you throw it away, don't you throw it now

Now it's a dark shade of grey, there's got to be another way

To hang on for one more day



Oh, baby baby baby baby, there's a dark, there's a dark shade of grey now baby

While the sunshine turns to rain, while it turns to pain

('Cause it's a focus in the place) oh baby

Can't you feel it, can't you feel the cryin' for me and you now... (to fade)
