Waiting On The Sun – Nikki Yanofsky

I’ve been spending most days
Waiting on the sun
These days it tends to hide away
My tears are blue, my skies are grey
Lately
It never seems to come
I shut the door and drop the shades
My tears are blue, my skies are grey

Looking at the blanket overhead
(All clouds no sun)
It’s never as soft as my own bed
Drizzle as the heavy city glows
(I’m feeling low)
Which was first I don’t know

Skies been bluffing me for days
Actin’ like it’s ’bout to rain
But I’ve been waiting
And nothing’s changed
Of all the shades the sky could take
Why paint it grey?
Why grey? Why grey?

I’ve been spending most days
Waiting on the sun
These days it tends to hide away
My tears are blue, my skies are grey
Lately
It never seems to come
I shut the door and drop the shades
My tears are blue, my skies are grey

Rising but the sun is still asleep
(Under the sheets)
I’m dreary as a dream
Things are as hard as you let them be
(Let them be)
But I can’t seem to stop the negativity

The skies been bluffing me for days
Acting like it’s ’bout to rain
Am I the one whose gonna make that change?
Of all the shades I could embrace
Why grey? Why am I feeling this way
I shut the door and drop the shades
My tears are blue, my skies are grey

Think I might be done
doo doo doo doo doo
Waitin’ on the sun, now
doo doo doo doo doo
When it’s gonna come out and rescue me, rescue me

I’ve been spending most days
Waiting on the sun
I shut the door and drop the shades
My tears are blue, my skies are grey
My tears are blue, my skies are grey
