Lyrics:
Draw the world in shades of grey
Cut me out and walk away
Pick me up then put me down
'Cause it feels so cold in the rain
Could I hold you for one day?
I need a chance to say...
Get a hope for another day
Give me music anyway
Lift the mood and float away
It feels so cold in the rain
Could I hold you for one day?
I need a chance to say...
What about us? Sing
What about us? Sing
Am Em C Em
What about love? Sing
Am Em C Em
What about trust? Sing
Am Em C Em (X3)
What about love!?!?
