Say, what's behind
Lies this time
Are looking black and lonely
I, I've been good
Misunderstood
And my life's disowned me
Dream in black and white
I said I might
Pick up a grey reception
Think a thousand things
On violin strings
They sing of sweet deception
I don't wanna take up your precious time
I just called to say
Had a ball, anyway
Guess that's all it's okay
You're holding someone on the other line
Shades of grey perception for a dime
Dream in black and white
In dead of night
Hanging on a feeling
Think in shades of grey
A day away
From hanging on the ceiling
I don't wanna take up your precious life
I just called to let you know
I'm not enthralled with this status quo
It's on the wall, I'll let you go
You're holding someone on the other line
Pocketful of black lies for dime
Was all it cost for me to lose
My faith in everything I ever wanted
Dime a dozen lost at the cross
Road collision indecision
And I think I may have used up my last dime
I don't wanna take up your sweet time
I just called to say
Had a ball, anyway
Guess that's all there is to say
There's nothing quite like stopping on a dime
