Gray or Blue by Jaymay

I feel so helpless now, my guitar is not around
And I'm struggling with the xylophone to make these feelings sound
And I'm remembering you singing and bringing you to life
And It's raining out the window and today it looks like night

You haven't written to me in a week I'm wondering why that is
Are you too nervous to be lovers, friendships ruined with just one kiss
I watched you very closely I saw you look away
Your eyes are either gray or blue I'm never close enough to say

But your sweatshirt says it all with the hood over your face
I can't keep staring at your mouth without wondering how it tastes
I'm with another boy; he's asleep, I'm wide awake
And he tried to win my heart, but it's taken time

I know the shape of your hands because I watch them when you talk
And I know the shape of your body 'cause I watch it when you walk
And I want to know it all but I'm giving you the lead
So go on, go on and take it, don't fake it, shake it

Don't second guess your feelings you were right from the start
And I notice she's your lover, but she's nowhere near your heart
This city is for strangers, like the sky is for the stars
But I think it's very dangerous if we do not take whats ours

And I'm winning you with words because I have no other way
I'd love to look into your face without your eyes turning away
Last night I watched you sing because a person has to try
And I walked home in the rain because a person cannot lie

How Come Nobody Told Me This?

I watched Across the Universe after everyone has raved about it but nobody ever told me about this bit -- in the middle of the film while the main characters Jude and Lucy are in this psychedelic party -- out comes a swaggering, moustached guy in blue shades, and I'm thinking, Man this guy looks so much like Bono. But the voice is wrong and the wrinkles are wrong.

And then he sings, "I am the Walrus" and, that voice, that swagger, those hand gestures and then there is no doubt in my mind.

What do you know. His first acting job.

Bono Plays Doctor in 'Across the Universe'

The groovy dude in the picture isn't just any mustachioed hippie with a fringe jacket and a psychedelic bus. It's none other than Bono, playing the role of "Dr. Robert" in the upcoming musical 'Across the Universe' (Sept. 14).

Bono's character in the film was based on Jack Kerouac muse Neal Cassady. "We studied film of him and the way he worked, and it's almost like he wanted to be a rock star," Bono said of Cassady. "He has all these jerky moves, a lot of self-confidence, always plays to the women in the room. For my first acting role, I thought this would be interesting and a little bit special."

'Across the Universe' is director Julie Taymor's brainchild, mixing an original story set in the 1960s with a soundtrack of 33 Beatles

songs. One of these songs is 'I Am the Walrus,' which Bono performs as the merry Dr. Robert.http://www.spinner.com/2007/09/13/bono-plays-doctor-in-across-the-universe/
