lyrics

I was a misfit, lost in my books, a bit afraid of life
You were a big hit, throwing cash around and gliding through the sky
And I couldn’t be someone’s doll to be lusted after
You knew I was wild and seeking a master

Keep me warm, safe, proud of you
Be my cloud, sun shining through
Teach me how to soar and I’ll be brave
Dress me up, like a fantasy
Lock me up, throw away the key
Bring me pain, take my blues away
With shades of grey

I want to know you, the things you love, what keeps you up at night
You want to own me, my innocence, the lips I love to bite
And but I’m still scared of you, still waiting to know the score
Cause I see in your heart, you’re wanting something more

Keep me warm, safe, proud of you
Be my cloud, sun shining through
Teach me how to soar and I’ll be brave
Dress me up, like a fantasy
Lock me up, throw away the key
Bring me pain, take my blues away
With shades of grey

I used to think that love was black and white
But now you’ve the lines for me, yeah

So keep me warm, safe, proud of you
Be my cloud, sun shining through
Teach me how to soar, I’ll be brave
Dress me up, like a fantasy
Lock me up, throw away the key
Bring me pain, take my blues away

Keep me warm, I wanna be, I wanna be, wanna be, oh
I’ll be brave
Give to me, your best interview
I will do what you tell me to
Bring me pain, take my blues away
With shades of grey
With shades of grey
Shades of grey, yeah
And shades of grey
