Bruce Hornsby - Fields Of Gray Lyrics

This is such a beautiful song. I’m listening. Who else is listening 2020.

Hi Bruce! I am so honored to have your son, Russell, play a Supporting Character this September in my film, "Denial". I met you personally back in 2004 in Charlotte, NC. I can still remember this song playing on the radio when I was a young rookie police officer and younger actor. :)

Very beautiful song and artist , perfect song for my kids, Dad loves you very much and promise to help you through. I love you both Arianna & Ethan ❤️

So serene and beautiful!!

Bruce wrote this one for his boys.

The " Redemption song" of Bruce Hornsbey. Beautiful. Renember 1993

My daughter....I granted her this song...Miss Becky.She turned out to be a fine woman. I'm thinkin it was Br uce and the Range

Not one of his bigger known hits , but it was my favorite

I had 7 aunts and 3 uncles who were my Mom's brothers and sisters. Their family was from the Sugarlands in the Great Smoky Mountains and they moved just before the National Park Service took over. They moved to an area called the Glades in the Gatlinburg area in Tennessee. This song reminds me so much of them and the people who had to leave the beautiful Great Smoky Mountains which included Cades Cove. I also had a cousin who was an avid trail hiker and hiker guide. He was known as the 'Jedi'. He recently lost his battle with brain cancer this year. So many people loved him because as they would hike, he would bring some nostalgia and interesting history into the conversation about the families who lived in the Great Smoky Mountains. This song reminds me so much of Mike Maples. RIP (03-05-2019). When I go walking the fields of gray, I think of you.

I adore the art work for this.

Best song I’ve ever heard by Bruce Hornsby. This same song is also featured on his CD entitled greatest radio hits which I happen to have. Imagine making up your very own slow dance to this song or having a special cheering team or squad for your favorite sports team like the Saint Louis blues for instance doing their own fun slow style of dance choreography to this song at a sporting event during a tv break or something at the sports venue.

Fields Of Gray
Bruce Hornsby
Album: Harbor Lights

When the night lies so still
Before I go to sleep
I come by, I come by
Just to look at you
In the dim light I say
That in my own small way
I will try, I will try
To help you through

There'll be blue skies falling
There'll be sad scenes and bad dreams
In a world so uncertain
Through the clouds it's hard to see
I will grab you and lift you
As you hold on tight and sway
We'll go walking
Walk across the fields of gray

There's a place I can go
When the world gets me down
When nothing, when nothing
Goes quite right it seems
As I look there I know
Fortune smiles on me so
But who knows, no one knows
About tomorrow

There'll be blue skies falling
There'll be good scenes and bad dreams
In a world so uncertain
Through the clouds it's hard to see
I will grab you and lift you
As you hold on tight and sway
We'll go walking
Walk across the fields of gray

When I was younger I saw things in black and white
Now all I see is a sad, hazy gray
Sometimes I see a narrow flash of light
Sometimes I look and you show me the way

No matter what else happens
What the future will be
In a world so uncertain
Through the clouds it's hard to see
I will grab you and carry you
Calm your fears if you're afraid
We'll go walking
Walk across the fields of gray
Fields of gray
We'll go walking...

Furs pretty in pink music videos

I haven't heard this song in years! There'll be blue skies falling
There'll be bad scenes and bad dreams...

Golden hour drive thru rolling countryside.black ribbon road snakes ahead.bruce comes on radio,tears undoubtedly follow.awsome!whats around the bend?

I spent time with my mom, and this song really brings back that memory it was a hike in Tennessee.

This is a song for my boys. My sons. It’s a song about how it feels bringing these kids up into this world of uncertainty, which is the fields of gray. As you get older, you realize I grew up as this cocky-assed kid, everything was black and white. As you get older you realize that it’s not so simple, that it’s mostly gray. And so trying to guide your boys through that is a daunting proposition for me, and it’s a song about love for your kids, and your uncertainty about hoping you can do the best for them.”Bruce Hornsby (59)

Wow spot on.

It doesn't get any better than this.

Just coming here to comment on how beautiful this song is. I could listen to it all day.

Fantastic talent

What an anthem for today and our children. The echo pierces the noise and those who would harm.

Great father-son ode! Very optimistic promise for a son in the future. Not enough of these.

beautiful song by Bruce Hornsby

This song reminds me of the 90s..........sort of poignant.......time went by really fast.....wow.

Does Bruce Hornsby have a greatest hits cd out yet?

Paul Smith thanks

The first three albums are essential to own. Every song is great !

completely forgot about this Bruce Hornsby gem. Fantastic.

Wonderful! Long live BH!

this song only went to #69 on the pop charts in 1993!!!

get it? lots a folks 69'd to this song.

WOW... What a shame. :(

Every time I listen to this tune I start to get chills up and down my body and tears begin to well up in my eyes.And the music stirs up wistful images in my mind. Such is the POWER of music,especially when it is written by such a FANTASTIC storyteller and pianist as Bruce Hornsby. BLESS YOU, and THANK YOU, Bruce, for your artistry and your music!!!

haven't heard this in years. Beautiful song.

if ever a song could best describe the American Landscape throughout the generations this would be it.

Hard to not tear up 😂 love it !

One of my favorite songs by Mr. Hornsby, always bring tears to my eyes.

He is the best

Phil Collins appears on this song, singing the harmony vocals...

+Jack Zullo yes I have...

+Joshua Johnson On Hero he plays drums & sings backing vocals, as well as recording a demo of himself performing the song entirely on his own..

+Joshua Johnson thanks for the info. I see the solo one, haven't watched it, yet.

+Jack Zullo it's a bit basic than the Crosby version, which has more instrumentation, but it's still just as good 😊

Yep, I hear him in the background.

This is so fucking bad

On behalf of the Bruce Hornsby fans who came to this video, I would like to thank you for your incredibly irrelevant opinion.
