Clear Skies

High on the bell tower

I took my view

Over the downtowns

And the avenues

Where the streets are wide

And the people thrive

And its further to fall down

Cause you fly so high

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

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 levee breaks

Where the streets are burned

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

Pull the roots up piece by piece

Love lives watching over me

Take 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

And I wish that I could be

Everything you are

Everything you are

And I wish that I could state

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
