fields of gray

Singer:bruce hornsby

when the night lies so still

before i go to sleep

i come by

i come by

just to look at you

in the dim light i say

that in my own small way

i will try

i will try

to help you through

there'll be blue skies falling

there'll be sad scenes and bad dreams

in a world so uncertain

through the clouds it's hard to see

i will grab you and lift you

as you hold on tight and sway

we'll go walking

across the fields of gray

there's a place i can go

when the world gets me down

when nothing

when nothing

goes quite right it seems

as i look there i know

fortune smiles on me so

but who knows

no one knows

about tomorrow

there'll be blue skies falling

there'll be sad scenes and bad dreams

in a world so uncertain

through the clouds it's hard to see

i will grab you and lift you

as you hold on tight and sway

we'll go walking

across the fields of gray

when i was younger i saw things in black and white

now all i see is a sad

hazy gray

sometimes i see a narrow flash of light

sometimes i look and you show me the way

no matter what else happens

what the future will be

in a world so uncertain

through the clouds it's hard to see

i will grab you and carry you

calm your fears if you're afraid

we'll go walking

across the fields of gray
