Colour In The Grey Lyrics

When I wake, if I allow it time

My mind will ponder the decline

When we found ourselves

I watched you slip away

Unable to prevent the separation

Regardless

I feel that you need to know

That you saved me

This won't be farewell

Don't think I would ever let things end this way

These memories won't fade

They're everything to me

They're the colour in the grey

Glowing incandescently

Like a beacon, shining into my soul

Equally bright, equally cold

The truth is

I cannot help but feel that I did something awful to

Cause this fissure

To grow between me and all of you

Reality is a far more difficult pill to swallow

And so it follows that I'd blame myself

But we're all just getting older

Can I trust that you're not just outgrowing me?

Don't think I would ever let things end this way

These memories won't fade

They're everything to me

They're the colour in the grey

Glowing incandescently

I hope this reaches you

And I hope you're doing well

'Cause with every ounce of my being

I am wishing for your health

No matter the distance between us

I'll be toasting your success

You will be with me always

My dear friend

Remember when I say

No matter how many years may pass

I'll never, no I'll never turn my back on you

Don't think I would ever let things end this way

These memories won't fade

They're everything to me

They're the colour in the grey

Glowing incandescently

I always struggled to find the words

To truly explain

What your friendship meant to me

And I know that we've changed

But I hope you haven't forgotten

That you're the family I chose

This may be goodbye

But it won't be farewell
