Friday On My Mind 66: Shades of Gray

It was only after I’d gone to bed on Wednesday that I realised that this song might have suited the mood better.

Today there is no dark or light,
Today there is no black or white,
Only shades of gray.”

Shades of Gray was written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil whose list of song-writing credits is mightily impressive.
