Grey Seal Lyrics

Why’s It Never Light
On My Lawn
Why Does It Rain
And Never Say Good-day
To The New-born
On The Big Screen
They Showed Us The Sun
But Not As Bright In
Life As The Real One
It’s Never Quite The
Same As The Real One

And Tell Me Grey Seal
How Does It Feel
To Be So Wise
To See Through Eyes
That Only See What’s Real
Tell Me Grey Seal

I Never Learned Why
Meteors Were Formed
I Only Farmed In Schools
That Were So Warn And Torn
If Anyone Can Cry Then So Can I
I Read Books And Draw
Life From The Eye
All My Life Is Drawings
From The Eye

And Tell Me Grey Seal
How Does It Feel
To Be So Wise
To See Through Eyes
That Only See What’s Real
Tell Me Grey Seal

Your Mission Bells Were
Wrought By Ancient Men
The Roots Were Formed
By Twisted Roots
Your Roots Were Twisted Then
I Was Re-born Before
All Life Could Die
The Phoenix Bird Will
Leave This World To Fly
If The Phoenix Bird Can
Fly Then So Can I

And Tell Me Grey Seal
How Does It Feel
To Be So Wise
To See Through Eyes
That Only See What’s Real
Tell Me Grey Seal
