The night holds me in her foggy embrace,
As I walk down this ***** alley,
It feels like someone else's tears are upon my face,
I dreamt music so sweet,
When she kissed my lips,
And we waltzed round the room.
She laid on my chest,
Listened to my heart beat,
Asked me if I ever dreamed,
When she was near the unknown ceased to loom,
She wasn't able to,
She only had memories of green.
In the back of my mind,
I know we don't have much time,
The unicorn that was left for me was a sign,
Suppose Rachael and I will go north,
To a place no one can find.
What I do know,
Is that I finally have something to call mine.
This is from Deckards point of view in the movie "Blade Runner" 1982.

Painting Greys
I could say we will be okay
But you don't believe it anyway
There's no reason for you to stay
So come what ever may

I will wait for you
There's a million things that i want to do
So right here is where I'll stay
Dying in a purple haze
Of all the things left to say
Every day will become grey
When you're gone

I don't have a lot of cash
But if you had wanted I would take from my stash
I'm just a guy with a paper and pen
Trying to get the love of my life back again
I hope you're doing well
My art still won't sell
So I sit in my canvas filled living room
And I feel the weight of the world start to loom

So I'll wait for you
There's so much you can do
Right here is where I'll stay
Dying in a familiar purple haze
We both know there's nothing left to say
And now I only paint with shades of grey
I used to paint with color but you took it all.
