Lyrics World Full Of Grey - Oscar Brown Jr.

When I was a lad simple notions I had
There was wrong, there was right
It was plain as black and white
Ah, but now that I′m grown,
In a 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 to the concrete
Since I woke up one day
To discover a world full of grey
I looked around for the bright spots
The lights that would 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?
