The sky was gray and of a hue

Of the dust at the bottom of a black bowl that's been forgotten at the climax of time

The roads seem to stretch out expansively

Like a never ending sea of grey

Then you took my hand and led me through

With a lantern in one hand and my hand in yours

We walked through that desolate road together

And that's why i love you

You seemed to make sense

Of everything that seems to be black

When light shades of dark were childhood

And even darker black your future

So allow me to take the paintbrush

Made from that desolate trip

And paint your portrait

On more than just a black tip

You helped me through this path

And so i will help you Take this path

With your hands in my hands

And our past in the other

So let's walk along this path together

With more than just a brush

And paint the road together

With more than just black

So let us sail

On the bottom of a bowl

And paint the grey sea with blue

Then we'll have nothing more to look at

Other than the colorful hue of us
