Lyrics of Gray Flowers by The Gray Havens
verse
The color-coded town, they had one rule
No grays allowed, it was a great offense
It brought no compliments
verse
A stranger to the town, he came and met a girl
That very few would say is worth thinking of
Still, he fell in love
chorus
And he brought her flowers every day
And she loved them, she loved him
She'd never felt that way
But they said, "Hey, those flowers, they are gray
They can't stay, no, no, well well, we'll let it slide
But read our signs, we don't like grays!"
verse
Then one day, they saw her in a dress
A gift from him, it was gray and red
It stopped 'em in their tracks
Ooh, they knew it matched
verse
A revolution, there was shortly found
Inside that color-coded town
Some happy, some enraged
So they marched on over to the place where
chorus
He brought her flowers every day
And she loved them, she loved him
She'd never felt that way
But they cried, "Let's take him to his grave
He can't stay, no, no, well, well
We done told him once, but now he's done!"
bridge
They cried, "We told you stay away from that crazy color
Turn around, if you don't we'll break ya
And you don't have anyone to save ya"
bridge
He said, "She needs me to stay
'Cause gray can take her sorrow
So I will die tonight, so she will know
That gray will stay in the color-code, yeah"
bridge
For my love, I will die, you know
But before I do, let the record show
chorus
That I brought her flowers every day
And she loved them, she loved me
She'd never felt that way
So if you feel you need some gray, that's okay, child
'Cause you know you've just got to ask
And I'll come back
outro
You know, you've just got to ask
And I'll come back
You know, you've just got to ask
And I'll come back and give you grace
