B. r. hornsby When the night lies so still Before i go to sleep I come by, i come by Just to look at you In the dim light i say That in my own small way I will try, i will try To help you through There'll be blue skies falling There'll be sad scenes and bad dreams In a world so uncertain Through the clouds it's hard to see I will grab you and lift you As you hold on tight and sway We'll go walking Across the fields of gray There's a place i can go When the world gets me down When nothing, when nothing Goes quite right it seems As i look there i know Fortune smiles on me so But who knows, no one knows About tomorrow
There'll be blue skies falling There'll be sad scenes and bad dreams In a world so uncertain Through the clouds it's hard to see I will grab you and lift you As you hold on tight and sway We'll go walking Across the fields of gray When i was younger i saw things in black and white Now all i see is a sad, hazy gray Sometimes i see a narrow flash of light Sometimes i look and you show me the way No matter what else happens What the future will be In a world so uncertain Through the clouds it's hard to see I will grab you and carry you Calm your fears if you're afraid We'll go walking Across the fields of gray
