Sun ain't shone for a while now
Seems like a year of cold-heart rain
It's been fallin' long as I can remember
It's like the whole world's got hurt on the brain
Everybody's wrapped up in nothin'
All locked up and hidin' away
Here I am with pencil and paper
Just tryna find somethin' to say
Yeah, I wish I had somethin' to say
I'm sittin' here waitin' on blue skies
In spite of all the things that I've seen
There's not a lot left I can do, so I'm just
Keepin' my windows clean
A leafless, gray tree in the front yard
See an old man out walkin' a dog
I smile and wave, and we'll both act like we
Haven't been lonely too long
Oh, God, I been lonely so long
I'm sittin' here waitin' on blue skies
In spite of all the things that I've seen
There's not a lot left I can do, so I'm just
Keepin' my windows clean
Yeah, I'm keepin' my windows clean
Someday I'll see somethin' bloomin'
See bluebirds just drift on the breeze
This echo's my only companion
As I sit and wait on the black clouds to finally leave
I'm sittin' here waitin' on blue skies
In spite of all the things that I've seen
There's not a lot left I can do, so I'm just
Keepin' my windows clean
Yeah, I'm sittin' here waitin' on blue skies
In spite of all the things that I've seen
There's not a lot left I can do, so I'm just
Keepin' my windows clean
Yeah, I'm sittin' here waitin' on blue skies
In spite of all the things that I've seen
There's not a lot left I can do, so I'm just
Keepin' my windows clean
Yeah, I'm keepin' my windows clean
Yeah, I'm keepin' my windows clean
