This ballad holds such an extreme meaningful story within the lyrics and the only fault I find with it is how under appreciated this song and the artist herself (Daughter) is. Not only is her originality aspiring but she personifies a realism into her song and personifies two opposite emotions (in this case depressed and joyousness) almost as if they were two people walking hand in hand. Her language in this ballad is recognisable because of the music industries current flow of meaningless songs and I think Daughter should be proud she fuels people's more creative sides revolving music to aspire to create meaningful songs with moral, understanding and soul. Daughters music is a story worth telling.
This song has such strong meaning. Couples sometimes take for-granted of one another and try to force them to change. Greed, jealousy, and control is such a negative aspect in a relationship. You also can't force a relationship because someone else out there needs them more.
One day there was a girl who cried tears of pearls and her eyes were blue and green like none I've ever seen And she met a man that night who filled her with delight and he spoke in poetry and rhyme and she loved him in no time But he changed and then soon he became jealous of her beauty and fame And he locked her away and he forced her to play songs that were blue, songs that were grey Yeah, yeah So then this lonely girl had, had enough of her world so she climbed to the top of the tallest tower and stood there for way over an hour Until she decided she'd jump, so she jumped with a very loud thump And all of the neighbours, they came out and cried when they discovered that this poor girl had died And a boy, he just stood there and gasped at this beauty asleep on the grass Well, her eyes were like none he had seen except for the girls in his dreams Then he changed and then soon he became depressed and very, very strange He'd lock himself away for days and days and play songs that were blue and play songs that were grey and play songs that reminded him of that day Yeah, yeah One day, there was a girl who fell in love with a boy in a different world and she speaks to him at night, only in a certain light She wore white when he wore black and they were like a perfect match And though one was dead and one was alive Through many years, their love did survive 'Til time faded and soon they became both exactly the same and they both are floating in the sky singing their own lullaby of a song of them that reminds them of a past time a song that reminds them of a past day a song that is blue and a song that is grey a song that is blue and a song that is grey a song that is blue, a song that is grey
FOR GOD'S SAKE CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHERE TO FIND THIS SONG ON ITUNES I'VE BEEN TRYING FOR 2 YEARS TO FIND IT AND I STILL CAN'T. Found the artist, not the song. Seriously Elena if you're reading this I want nothing more than to buy your song and encourage you but you're not making it easy!

Beautiful. Even though it's very sad, I can understand it and I wish I was this good at writing songs. Blue and Grey are my favorite colors.
One day there was a girl who cried tears of pearls
and her eyes were blue and green like none I've ever seen
And she met a man that night who filled her with delight
and he spoke in poetry and rhyme
and she loved him in no time
But he changed
and then soon he became jealous of her beauty and fame
And he locked her away and he forced her to play
songs that were blue, songs that were grey
Yeah, yeah
So then this lonely girl had, had enough of her world
so she climbed to the top of the tallest tower and stood there for way over an hour
Until she decided she'd jump, so she jumped with a very loud thump
And all of the neighbours, they came out and cried
when they discovered that this poor girl had died
And a boy, he just stood there and gasped at this beauty asleep on the grass
Well, her eyes were like none he had seen
except for the girls in his dreams
Then he changed
and then soon he became depressed and very, very strange
He'd lock himself away for days and days
and play songs that were blue and play songs that were grey
and play songs that reminded him of that day
Yeah, yeah
One day, there was a girl who fell in love with a boy in a different world
and she speaks to him at night, only in a certain light
She wore white when he wore black and they were like a perfect match
And though one was dead and one was alive
Through many years, their love did survive
'Til time faded and soon they became both exactly the same
and they both are floating in the sky singing their own lullaby
of a song of them that reminds them of a past time
a song that reminds them of a past day
a song that is blue and a song that is grey
a song that is blue and a song that is grey
a song that is blue, a song that is grey
This is too beautiful! Sometimes her voice reminds me of Regina Spektor's ♥
This has such a deep meaning and is so amazing! She deserves more credit for her voice!
Wow... I'm crying :(

And a boy too had stood there
I'm yeah
With a very loud thump
Songs have a Blue songs
Go hard hard copies
And all of the neighbors came out and cried
And he looked her way
Top of the of
And her eyes were blue and green
For way over is till she
She came to the
He became jealous of her beauty and he took her away
He was more in love with the afterlife than he was in her
There for way
And stood
When they discovered that this poor girl had died
Rhyme
To jump so she jumped
So then this
Poetry and
Tallest tower
Howard
And then he changed and soon became jealous
Like none I've ever seen
Way over
Her eyes were like none
He had seen
Except for
The girls and his dreams
Then he changed and meant to be
Became the christ
So
And laughed at
