another grey day in the big blue world

And now she wakes to another grey day In the Big Blue World And her room's a tiny cage for a golden bird O where did love go? And now the baby, that looks like him, Starts to cry again And again, again, eternally over again Do rivers ever end? Count a thousand drops of rain Washed down the drain Is life the same, in a way? Catch the bus that never comes Clouds block the sun Is life the same, in a way? What will tomorrow bring? Will birds sing? And now the flowers in the window box Seem to bow their heads As she sits and stares with eyes, sad circles of red where did love go? Never a letter or a call A knock upon the door So much like life, in a way Watch the hands move round the clock Tie time in knots Life does the same, in a way What will tomorrow bring? Will birds sing? Let the birds sing! And now she sleeps in an empty bed Through a starless night But she dreams of snow-White doves Bringing branches of love maybe that's enough Count a thousand drops of rain Washed down the drain Is life the same, in a way? Catch the bus that never comes Clouds block the sun Is life the same, in a way? Never a letter or a call A knock upon the door So much like life, in a way Watch the hands move round the clock Tie time in knots Life does the same, in a way What will tomorrow bring? Will birds sing?
