Story Behind The Song
Autobiographical. This was a period in my life when I was a seeker.
Song Description
Our hero has the blues while hIs soul yearns to be free. The more he seeks God the more it seems God hides from him. He feels everything he does to move forward leaves him further behind and that he's been stuck in this gray morning or depression forever.

Lyrics
Gray Morning
It's a Gray Morning falling down on me
It's a blues day dawning as my soul yearns to be free
In this world I'm traveling lost and alone
In this world I'm traveling trying to get home
Lost in a fool's game I don't want to play
I keep trying to find you while you just run away
But one day I will be free
When your love reigns over me
It's a gray gray morning falling down on me
It's a blues day dawning as my soul yearns to be free
Every step forward brings me two steps back
Every time I get out they pull me right on back
Been here so long and I don't know why
Been here so long and I just want to die
But one day I will be free
When your love reigns over me
