Songs In Red and Gray

歌詞

the reproach in your daughter's most beautiful face made me wonder just how she could know of that something that happened between you and me so much more than a long time ago her mother I can see lives within her still cause she looked at me with her eyes though I had only just met her right then I feel that she peeled back my guilty disguise <♪> did I break the thread or did you break the thread well at this point we could ask who cares as for the promises broken and frayed it's 19 years late for repairs the grey pewter vase held the deep red rose one piece of coral shone white by the brass candlestick near your red velvet coat is everything I can recall of one night will you please tell me why I remember these things after all of this time I don't know I must have left all those feelings inside cause that year I had no courage to show was I the name you could never pronounce or did I even figure at all all of this happened before she was born did I shadow her young pencil marks on the wall still I am sure I was only but one of a number who darkened that door of your home and your hearth and your family and wife who'd been darkened so often before oh the red leaf looks to the hard gray stone to each other they know what they mean somewhere their future is still yet to come in ways that are yet as of now unforeseen
