Jay Ducharme - Cloudy Day Lyrics

Cloudy day
Such a cloudy day
I saw the sun this morning
Now it's gone
Far away
You're so far away
Even when you're with me
I'm alone

Summer comes, the endless days of heat
The hazy sun that never seems to set
So much time to wonder where you are
We used to sit beneath a shady tree
Skipping stones across a quiet stream
Watching ripples glistening like stars

Cloudy night
Such a cloudy night
A curtain drawn across the milky way
But what a sight
On a starry night
Watching constellations form your face

Autumn comes with cool and soothing rain
Blown by wind against my window pane
Filling up my silent room with sound
I'm haunted by a face I can't forget
I dream about the fall when we first met
Kicking up the leaves upon the ground

Cloudy skies
I see cloudy skies
Shadows soaring on a misty breeze
Memories
All these memories
Colors fading from the fallen leaves

Winter whiteness dusts the mountainside
But even though the world looks purified
The changes that the seasons bring are few
And so I find a frozen hill to climb
Looking back at all the wasted time
I could have better spent in search of you

Cloudy day
Such a cloudy day
Naked trees are shimmering with frost
Gone away
Now I've gone away
Too late to find the innocence I lost
