World Full Of Grey

World Full Of Grey - Oscar Brown Jr.

Written by：Oscar Brown/Jr.

When I was a lad simple notions I had

There was wrong

There was right

It was plain black and white

Ah but now that I'm grown

In the world on my own

The scenes I survey

Show nothing but grey

The sun doesn't shine down on my street

The sky look as heavy as lid

The grass blends right in to the concrete

Since I woke up one day

To discover a world full of grey

I looked all around for the bright spots

The lights that could lead me ahead

I must not have looked in the right spots

Nothing bright nothing gay

Just a muddy old world full of grey

When I was a child

I thought day fortune smile

Life became a parade

And a man had it mate

Ah but now I'm a man

And at crossroads I stand

Confronted with doubt

And all turned about

At night in my sleep

I hear voices

I'm never quite certain what's said

They offer me too many choices

There's no black

There's no white

Where is wrong

Where is right

I'm confused and unable to say

How does a man find his way

In a world full of grey
