She is trapped inside a month of grey,
And they take a little every day,
She is a victim of her own responses,
Shackled to a heart that wants to settle,
And then runs away,
It's a sin to be, fading endlessly,
Yeah, but she's alright with me.
She is leaving on a walkaway,
She is leaving me in disarray,
In the absence of a place to be,
She stands there looking back at me,
Hesitates and then turns away,
She'll change so suddenly,
She's just like mercury,
Yeah, but she's alright with me.
Keep some sorrow in your hearts and minds,
For the things that die before their time,
For the restlessly abandoned homes,
The tired and weary rambler's bones,
And stay beside me where I lie,
She's entwined in me, crazy as can be,
Yeah, but she's alright with me,
She's alright, she's alright with me,
She's alright with me,
She's alright with me,
She's alright with me.

Way better than yer average CCs. This one is good.
One of the only Counting Crows songs I can stand.
oh gods, I HATE COUNTING CROWS!! bleh!
Whiny is a good way to describe his voice. Sorry, I can't stand it and think the band might be OK without the lead singer.
Counting Crows and Gwen Stefani .. oh boy .. i used to work with a chick that used to play both ALL time .. i didn't like them before .. now i can't stand it .. sorry ..

Three things Adam Duritz did well...
1) Autumn and everything after
2) Courtenay Cox
3) Jennifer Aniston
... not this song, sorry didn't make the cut.

Sideshow Bob. lmao.
And yes, another example of the wasted potential of this band. Sideshow's pretentious preeening makes me gag.

Not a Counting Crow fan but this "is all right with me".

Uck. Would the singer for Counting Crows please go bury himself already. Can't stand that whiny voice.
Not a big fan of Counting Crows. This does nothing to change my opinion.
Me too!!
I love this song. Always have. Always will.
