Grey December - Chet Baker

Shadows pass my window

Dark and lonely forms

Memories of a fire

Become an ember

Grey December

Listen, can’t you hear it?

(?) and listless (?)

Shapeless dreams I try hard

To remember

Grey December

Couldn’t you play the role

Lovers do?

And stay

Just for this moment

But love wasn’t meant

For sorrow and lament

So I’ll do my dreaming alone

Softly, now, I see them

Lovers' arms entwined

Shadows of a love

I can’t remember

Now or never

Grey December
