One day there was a girl who cried tears of pearls
And her eyes were blue and green like none I've ever seen
And she met a man that night who filled her with delight
And he spoke in poetry and rhyme and she loved him in no time
But he changed and then soon he became jealous of her beauty and fame
And he locked her away and he forced her to play
Songs that were blue, songs that were grey
Yeah yeah
So then this lonely girl, had had enough of her world
So she climbed to the top of the tallest tower and stood there for way over an hour
Until she decided she'd jump, so she jumped with a very loud thump
And all of the neighbours they came out and cried
When they discovered that this poor girl had died
And a boy he just came out a gasped at this beauty asleep on the grass
Well her eyes were like none he had seen except for the girls in his dreams
Then he changed and then soon he became depressed and very very strange
He'd lock himself away for days and days
And play songs that were blue and play songs that were grey
And play songs that reminded him of that day
Yeah yeah
One day there was a girl, who fell inlove with a boy in a different world
And she speaks to him at night, only in a certain light
She wore white when he wore black and they were like a perfect match
And though one was dead and one was alive through many years their love did survive
'Till time faded and soon they became, both exactly the same
And they both are floating in the sky singing their own lullabies of
A song of them that reminds them of a past time
A song that reminds them of a past day
A song that is blue a song that is grey
A song that is blue a song that is grey
A song that is blue, a song that is grey.
