Painting Gray Clouds With A Silver Line (Larry W. Jones 10/08/2007) (song#5050)

When I make believe I'm happy
I sure wish things turned out that way
But I'm only fooling this heart of mine
I'm painting gray clouds with a silver line

When I try to suppress a tear
The cry behind it I still hear
I know it's just a lie that I design
I'm painting gray clouds with a silver line

I'm just painting the sky all blue
Trying to hide my grief
I'm just painting a dream untrue
Just trying to believe

When I try to suppress a tear
The cry behind it I still hear
I know it's just a lie that I design
I'm painting gray clouds with a silver line

I'm just painting the sky all blue
Trying to hide my grief
I'm just painting a dream untrue
Just trying to believe

But all my things are looking good
Just like I pictured they all would
I'll just keep pretending all of the time
I'm painting gray clouds with a silver line
