about

i got dumped and went to park and cried like a lil idiot and wrote this song on this big hill where a lot of people stared at me. kind of an embarrassing story

lyrics

Lover talk softly now
My ears may be ringing
For awhile

But who needs hearing now
When around me, all I see
Are blue skies

Blues skies change to grey
But I'll stay hopeful
That they'll return soon

Come and go to see
Sorrow
In the darkened sun

Look out where the sun
Used to be
And know it has found tomorrow

Sweet dreams passing sun
When missing
I feel your gone

A day full of changing skies
There's still room
For an unchanging night

Soon, it is coming soon
One day of light
Is not enough
