No shadows from the noon day sun Lie upon the letters left undone With all the day leaning on my empty hand With all the world still yet to live I'm not fool enough to think the world could give Me what I'm looking for to understand Shall I read the leaves pressed in a book Or take the time to look and linger whereupon I stand Or shall I write a sad song today And shift over my thoughts as they fray Into unraveled revels that lead me well astray
Leave me with the only song that I can play I read somewhere that when you're sad Your body makes a chemical thereby Releasing it into the brain So things don't seem so bad... I guess that beeing down is like some kind of high Si I write a sad song today And watch all of the colors turn to grey Let the hours drift easily away The words, the melody the only things to stay
