The color of the sky as far as I can see is gull gray
I lift my head from the pillow and then fall again
I get a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather
A quiver in my lip as if I might cry
And by the force of will my lungs are filled and so I breathe
Lately it seems this big bed is where I never leave
I get a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather
A quiver in my voice as I cry
What a cold and rainy day
Where on earth is the sun hid away
I hear the sound of a noon bell chime well I'm far behind
You put in 'bout half a day while here I lie
With a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather
A quiver in my lip as if I may cry
What a cold and rainy day
Where on earth is the sun hid away
Do I need someone here to scold me
Or do I need someone who'll grab and pull me out of
Four poster dull torpor pulling downward
For it's such a long time since my better days
I say my prayers nightly this will pass away
The color of the sky is gray as I can see through the blinds
Lift my head from the pillow and then I fall again
I get a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather
A quiver in my lip as if I may cry
A cold and rainy day
Where on earth is the sun hid away
A cold and rainy day
I shiver quiver and try to wake
