Lyrics Blue Sunny Day (Live 2014) - Jonathan Coulton

Early light that burns my eyes
A minute more the sun will rise
And paint the bright blue sky with yellow gold
I'll be dead asleep by then,
Shut up in this box again
Until it's gone
Outside I can hear it
Birds are singing, bees are buzzing, sun shines overhead
I'd be there to see it, but I can't get out of bed
Since the day you left the weather always feels this way
One more blue sunny day
Sunny day
Looking for an easy mark
I hit the Denny's after dark
And take a lonely waitress home to drink
She's sincere but halfway through,
I find I'm wishing she was you
My blood goes cold
I guess this date is over
Several hours later i'm the only one awake
All these streets are empty it's just me and my mistake
One by one the stars go out, as black skies turn to gray
One more blue sunny day
Sunny day
Sometimes I see how long I can wait,
Tempting disaster by my garden gate
My trembling hand's on the cellar door,
Trying not to think of what it is i'm waiting for
All at once I've had enough,
As if i'm made of sterner stuff,
I take a breath and open up the door
Dawn breaks hard and falls on me
For just one moment I can see
The pale blue skies
I close my eyes because the world's so bright and beautiful I have to look away,
Braced against the beauty of another perfect day
As I go to pieces and the breeze blows me away
One more blue sunny day
Sunny day
