Clear Skies

And I wish that I could be

Everything you are

Everything you are

( )

Down in the delta

The city wakes

Turns on the TV

As the levy breaks

( )

Where the streets are burned

From the hot summer sun

And there's nowhere to run to

When your time has come

( )

I've never seen such beauty

I've never seen such clear skies

I've never seen such high hopes

I've never seen such tired eyes

( )

Loop the loops up piece by piece

All that flashing all over me

Took my pills and went to sleep

Oh, and I sang myself to sleep

And I wish that I could be

Everything you are

Everything you are

And I wish that I could see

The world the way you do

As selfishly as you

Oooh

Solo 12x:

And I wish that I could be

Everything you are

Everything you are

And I wish that I could stick

My faith the way you do

As certainly as you

Clear skies going to fall on you

Clear skies going to fall on you

Clear skies going to fall on you

On you, on you.

Clear skies going to fall on you

Clear skies
