Monkees - Shades Of Gray Lyrics
By barry mann and cyntha weilWhen the world and I were young,Just yesterday.Live was such a simple game,A child could play.It was easy then to tell right from wrong.Easy then to tell weak from strong.When a man should stand and fight,Or just go along.But today there is no day or nightToday there is no dark or light.Today there is no black or white,Only shades of gray.I remember when the answers seemed so clearWe had never lived with doubt or tasted fear.It was easy then to tell truth from liesSelling out from compromiseWho to love and who to hate,The foolish from the wise.But today there is no day or nightToday there is no dark or light.Today there is no black or white,Only shades of gray.[instumental interlude]It was easy then to know what was fairWhen to keep and when to share.How much to protect your heartAnd how much to care.But today there is no day or nightToday there is no dark or light.Today there is no black or white,Only shades of gray.Only shades of gray.
