Steve Lillywhite - Grey Street (Lillywhite Sessions) lyrics

[Verse 1] Look at how she listens She says nothing of what she thinks Just listens to abuses And by the kitchen sink... She thinks, "Hey! Why do I live to this? I'm latest on life How did it end like this?" [Chorus 1} Oh, when the roads in her heart fall And she feels the weight of life And the colors mix together to grey Grey Street [Verse 2] Begging now the difference She prays to God most everynight Although she swears He doesn't listen There's hope in her that He just might She said, "I Pray!" "I Pray!" "I Pray!" "But they fall on deaf ears I'm supposed to take it all on myself To get out of this place." [Chorus 2] But when the roads in her heart fall And then she rode the light in Oh, the pain now seems it's over And again she sees the pain And then the colors mix together to grey On Grey Street [Verse 3] It's all colored in again Take what you can from your dreams Make it real as anything Takes the work out of the courage She said, "Please!" "Please!" "Please!" "There's someone sleeping outside my door I live on the corner of Grey Street And the end of the world." [Chorus 3] And the wrong in her whole plan Is as hopeless as the day she came And the man she calls her father Ignores her and ignores her pain Oh, when I walk out in the morning In all this sunlight And all the colors mix together to grey On Grey Street On Grey Street It's Grey Street, you go [Chorus 4] So, don't lose your heaven Don't convince yourself you're done Just 'cause the things around you seem heavy Doesn't mean you can't get off this ground When you hold me down in the heartland Move out and, oh, the wait is over Oh, might notice of your worry One another daylight And the colors mix together to grey [Outro] On Grey Street On Grey Street To grey... Yeah, yeah...
