Blue Turns To Grey (Constable/Jagger/Richards)













Well, now that she is gone,
You won't feel bad for long,
For maybe just an Hour or 
Just a moment of the day --
And try as you may.
You just don't feel good --
And you don't feel alright.
And you know that
You must find her
Find her, find her . . .










She's not home when you call,
So you then go to All
The places where she likes to be,
But she has gone away --
And try as you may
You just don't feel good --
And you don't feel alright.
And you know that
You must find her
Find her, find her . . .
