lyrics

GREEN GREY

it's silly to say, maybe you make everyone feel this way
i'm telling my heart, this ain't no place for love to start

ever since I met you colour’s been creeping in
flirting in shadow, painting light on an old sin

every line you draw I bend
every glance you give I linger in
grey shades, waiting on your beckoning

ooh ever since I met you
I've been holding out to brush against you
but you got someone at home

it's silly to say, maybe you make everyone feel this way
i'm telling my heart, this ain't no place for love to start
it's silly to say, maybe you make everyone feel this way
if loving you is wrong, then how come you keep hanging on?

ever since I met you at sunrise
all the colours clashing wildly with your green grey eyes

you told me timing is never right
as the golden sun kissed the horizon
blushing rose between shows and curtain

ooh ever since I met you
I've been holding out to brush against you
but you got someone at home

it's silly to say, maybe you make everyone feel this way
i'm telling my heart, this ain't no place for love to start
it's silly to say, maybe you make everyone feel this way
if loving you is wrong, then how come you keep hanging on?

cause when i'm alone
I think of your eyes, and how they shine into mine
I've got to tear my gaze away, lest you see me falling for those green greys

I’ve got to tear my gaze away
Lest you see me falling for those green greys
Oh you’re the one I know
Yeah you're the one I'm falling for those green greys
