Scarlet And Grey

Stop a while and say what's on your mind
And let your thoughts just ripple down upon the driftin', shiftin' sand
Let the flower blossom in the sun
Don't stop it once it has begun, accept and try to understand
Come and tell me what you really think
Sit down and have a little drink
I will not laugh at what you say
Today.

Never mind the raven on the tree
He does not look at you or me
His thoughts are much too far away
Maybe there are things you'd like to know
And places that you'd like to go
Perhaps confusion holds you down
Please don't think that I just want you impressed
I'm as confused as all the rest
Except for one thing that I appeal
I feel.

In this paper world of here and now
I feel I have to tell you how
You're something slightly more than real
There is nothing more you need to know
I've told you what I want so you can come with me or you can stay
You can choose the darkness or the light
It's just a question of a fight between the scarlet and the grey
He say.
