Return to Gray
(Keith Foti)

I was walking in down Pico Blvd. in Santa Monica and the words started creeping into my head.
Return to Gray
The smoke screen sky shielded the sun
As the ocean breeze freed the umber leaves from the trees
Heavy my feet are fading fast
So I think of you
As I return to gray
The street signs climb five miles high
And the perpetration of my inspiration causing me my frustration
My heart and vision overridden by constant information
So I think of you
As I return to gray
And I think of you
As I return to gray
My mind and body is racing towards gravity
And all I want to do is float away
Into your warm chestnut hair
I want to see you sleeping in our bed
As the night sky turns from charcoal to red
Money people and dreams
Are falling in and out of my life
The only thing that means anything is the love I leave behind
So I think of you
As I return to gray
And I think of you
As I return to gray
