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.
