Gray

There were piles of unseen troubles 

That opened this heart’s traveling bag
And the reasons had their reasons
Then new feelings set their flags

I’d never tell someone to do it

But I’d offer them an invite
Understand things can look quite simple 
In the softened light of night

Giving off no clue and feeling like they should

But in the bright of morning 
Things simple in that moonlight
Have a hard time conforming

To ideas of wrong or right

Still the world is shining
And filled with radiant light
Because those softened evenings

Gave this heart a brand new life
