SILVER AND THE GRAY
The dust is settling on the frame
Of a life we built and a younger name
You saw me then in that shade of red
Better than the rest was what you said
We built this nest with hands and heart
But time has a way of pulling at the parts
So tell me where I fit in now
Beyond the promise and the sacred vow
Does your heart still find its way to mine
Or are we just a shadow of a different time
I’m reaching out through the silver and the gray
Do you still want me in the same old way
The dress is folded tucked away
Like the things we meant to always say
The nest is full the walls are high
But I'm searching for the look that was in your eye
I don’t want a ghost of who we used to be
I want to know if you still see me
So tell me where I fit in now
Beyond the promise and the sacred vow
Does your heart still find its way to mine
Or are we just a shadow of a different time
I’m reaching out through the silver and the gray
Do you still want me in the same old way
It’s been a long road a winding track
And my head hurts from remembering back
Looking at the spark we kept
Through joy and tears we’ve wept
But this life with you I’ll never resent
I’m reaching out through the silver and the gray
Do I still have your heart in that forever love way
So tell me where I fit in now my youth is gone hair has changed
Has changed but my love will remain the same
The same
I’m reaching out through the silver and the gray
When I look at you its hard to explain how much love I feel this very day
