Grey Street

The third (and last :() song that our chorus teacher, Mr. Fowle, performed for us before winter break. Of course, the girls were like WE WANT A LOVE SONG.

So yeah this is "Grey Street" by Dave Matthews Band, Jacob Fowle style.

Lyrics to his version:

Oh look at how she listens
She says nothing of what she thinks
She just goes stumbling through her memories
She's staring out on to Grey Street

She thinks, Hey,
How did I come to this?
I dream myself a thousand times around the world,
But I cant get out of this place

Theres an emptiness inside her
And shed do anything to fill it in
But all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart

How she wishes it was different
She prays to God most every night
And though she swears He doesnt listen
Theres still a hope in her He might

She says, I pray, oh
But they fall on deaf ears,
Am I supposed to take it on myself
To get on out of this place?

Theres loneliness inside her
And shed do anything to fill it in
And though its red blood bleeding from her now
It's more like cold blue ice in her heart
When all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart

Theres a man who sleeps outside her door
Says take what you can from your dreams
Make them as real as anything
Itll take the work out of the courage

But she says, Please, please, please
Theres a crazy man thats outside my door,
I live on the corner of Grey Street
And the end of the world

Theres an emptiness inside her
And shed do anything to fill it in
And though its red blood bleeding from her, now
Its more like cold blue ice in her heart
She feels like kicking out all the windows
And setting fire to this life
She could change everything about her
Using colors bold and bright
But all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart
It breaks her heart
To grey, yeah

love song say the Justin bieber fans, Dave Mattews FTW! A little crtique the singing is cut short and the piano notes are too, It's long and dragged out, It makes it sound a lot better. Trust me I sing it all the time. I agree you have a good taste in music.
