Shades Of Gray - Eagle-Eye Cherry[00:00:02]
If you start here late no one will know what you did[00:00:11]
No the streets are straight it's the soul that's crooked[00:00:15]
I've been treated fine I've been treated elegantly[00:00:19]
But I'm not one for bathing in the waters of plenty[00:00:23]
East is east west is west[00:00:28]
And bowery is screaming while delancey rests[00:00:32]
Well I'm south of the skating but I'm north of the cash[00:00:36]
I could sure use the money but I'm ashamed to ask[00:00:40]
The traffic has buried all of last nights rain[00:00:45]
The words are all different but the accent is the same[00:00:49]
The sun is white and the moon is gray[00:00:54]
And the river is black blue and green[00:00:58]
The young are young and the old are old[00:01:02]
And there are no shades of gray in between[00:01:06]
There's at least ten different strains of smoke in the air[00:01:19]
And my prints are on them all to prove I was there[00:01:23]
And I love the curses but I'm not one for the trenches[00:01:28]
And I do love the walking but thank God for the benches[00:01:32]
It's hard to tell where green begins[00:01:37]
And the city gray stops[00:01:39]
I guess the trees all bought their[00:01:41]
Armor at second hand shops[00:01:43]
My second had is working[00:01:45]
But the minute hand is broke again[00:01:46]
I know time will pass but I don't know when[00:01:49]
The sun is white and the moon is gray[00:01:54]
And the river is black blue and green[00:01:58]
The young are young and the old are old[00:02:02]
And there are no shades of gray in between[00:02:06]
And there are no shades of gray in between[00:02:11]
I know the great ones have been here but where I cant tell[00:02:15]
There's dreams here a plenty but they're being withheld[00:02:19]
And I'm more impressed with the[00:02:23]
Closed doors than the ones that are open[00:02:25]
The whole place tells time by a tower clock tha'ts broken[00:02:27]
The pigeons are ravens and the gulls are vultures[00:02:32]
And trash is art and cash is culture[00:02:36]
The sun is white and the moon is gray[00:02:40]
And the river is black blue and green[00:02:45]
The young are young and the old are old[00:02:49]
And there are no shades of gray in between[00:02:53]
There are no shades of gray in between[00:02:57]
There are no shades of gray in between[00:03:02]
