David Gray is not red, he's blue

Well, I don't know if David Gray is BLUE per se... but I do know that his lyrics really hit the spot sometimes. So here's a post, a tribute to the man who has traveled with me (lyrically and musically) through every phase of my life.

"Tell the [...] stars above that you’re the one I love"

-The One I Love

"Some days i'm bursting at the seams with all my half

remembered dreams and then it shoots me down again"

-Ain't No Love

"This years love had better last. Heaven knows it's

high time. And I've been waiting on my own too long"

-This Years Love

"Someone tell me where did it go.

Darling I'm damned if I know"

-Lately

"From here you can almost see the sea. Just another fool in the line.
I dream of high clouds, flushed with the light of daybreak"

-From Here... the Sea

"Send a little prayer out to ya

‘cross the falling dark "

-The One I Love

"Feels like lightning

running through my veins

everytime I look at you"

-Please Forgive Me

"Ah but Caroline,

It seems like everytime

Honey all I get, is further away"

-Caroline

"All my words are falling short

and there's so much I want to say"

-Please Forgive Me

"Drag a salted kiss

from this cup of bliss,

watch a new lie twist on the breeze "

-Lately

"I got half a mind to scream out loud

I got half a mind to die"

-Please Forgive Me

"Praise the lord above

And sell sell sell"

-Sell, Sell, Sell

"Cause we're gonna need more

Than money and science

To see us through this world.

You say it can't be done

You'd rather die of fun."

-Forever Is Tomorrow Is Today
