i'm learning the new words

BLUE SKIES ALWAYS BRIGHTEN MY DAYS
when i wake up in the morning
i know it'll be the same
it's far too early to be getting up
i can't get on my way
and sure enough
i'm standing in a doorway
where i start to hear my name
all i'm wanting is to be leaving
the dreams are so draining

when i wake up in the morning
i like to think i rise with the sun
with all the people that have their act together
with all the ones who are busy trying
but now they're leaving for work and for school
and i'm left writing down my reasons
a list that i can't quite justify
but i'm fine tonight, maybe tomorrow
a faith restored from needless sorrow
