Green & Gray from Melodic Snapshots by Dan Vaillancourt

She’s got her mothers laugh
She’s got her father’s grin
But she’s got her grandma’s sense of style

She’s got her mother’s eyes
Causes her to see in a fog
Of indecision, she doesn’t like to be alone

Chorus:
She doesn’t even know who she is
She is covered in shades of green and gray
She doesn’t even recognize the subtlety in what she sees
I’ve got to get out of this town, I’m afraid it might grow on me
I don’t think I could call this place home for even one more day... So let’s run away

She says she’s got to leave here
I said, “yes, but when?”
She said, “In my mind I’m already gone.”

“One more thing I’ve got to do here.”
One more thing always turns to two
I don’t know if she’ll ever go

I wish that I could see her fire
I wish that I could fan her flame
I wish I could burn the bridges to her past

Adrift in the see of life
Follow our dreams, the waves push us around
Sometimes those waves aren’t big enough

She’s in a boat with a thousand pound anchor
Never drifts too far from home
Small town girl, big city dreams.
