when the night lies so still
before i go to sleep
i come by i come by
just to look at you
in the dim light i say
that in my own small way
i will try i will try
to help you through
there’ll be blue skies falling
there’ll be sad scenes and bad dreams
in a world so uncertain
through the clouds it’s hard to see
i will grab you and lift you
as you hold on tight and sway
we’ll go walking
across the fields of gray
there’s a place i can go
when the world gets me down
when nothing when nothing
goes quite right it seems
as i look there i know
fortune smiles on me so
but who knows no one knows
about tomorrow
there’ll be blue skies falling
there’ll be sad scenes and bad dreams
in a world so uncertain
through the clouds it’s hard to see
i will grab you and lift you
as you hold on tight and sway
we’ll go walking
across the fields of gray
when i was younger i saw things in black and white
now all i see is a sad hazy gray
sometimes i see a narrow flash of light
sometimes i look and you show me the way
no matter what else happens
what the future will be
in a world so uncertain
through the clouds it’s hard to see
i will grab you and carry you
calm your fears if you’re afraid
we’ll go walking
across the fields of gray
