Shades of Gray Lyrics by The Will-O-Bees

0

[Verse 1]
When the world and I were young just yesterday
Life was such a simple game a child could play
Well, it was easy then to tell right from wrong
Easy then to tell weak from strong
When a man should stand and fight or just go along
[Chorus]
But today there is no day or night
Today there is no dark or light
Today there is no black or white
Only shades of gray
[Verse 2]
I remember when the answer seemed so clear
We had never lived with doubt or tasted fear
Well, it was easy then to tell truth from lies
Selling out from compromise
Who to love and who to hate, the foolish from the wise
[Chorus]
But today there is no day or night
Today there is no dark or light
Today there is no black or white
Only shades of gray
Only shades of gray
[Verse 3]
Well, it was easy then to tell what was fair
When to keep and when to share
How much to protect your heart and how much to bear
[Chorus]
But today there is no day or night
Today there is no dark or light
Today there is no black or white
Only shades of gray
Only shades of gray, gray, ooh
