I wake up early in the afternoon
Pretty much like yesterday
Heaven is a grayer shade of blue
Ahead of me a lonely way
Feeling like there's nothin' I can do
And there's nothin' left to say
Lately it's been hard to stay with you
No revelry along the way
I have waited all my life for you
I have been a grayer shade of blue
How I wish that I could reach you now somehow
There's always something in the way
In the midst you slip away
Sometimes I hate everything
How I wish that I could reach you now somehow
There's always something in the way
