SHADES OF THE PAST Verse 1: Red as the roses come My love it never was dark as the evening sky We let love pass us by... I was caught in the middle somewhere in the gray Now it's time to leave that all behind my uncertain yesterdays Chorus: Now it's black or white Now it's wrong or right I can't live without you here SHADES OF THE PAST are long gone I've got one thing on my mind... There's a choice to make There'll be no mistake The time has come around I'm leaving no middle ground ...let my heart be the only sound Verse 2: Pink is not red or white but you brought me pink roses tonight and I got to thinking to myself oh the time is right A promise is stronger than a whisper So I say "goodbye" to our yesterdays and leave behind those shades of gray
