Sunset Soul

My wings spread as I took a step And leapt up through the sky, I rose to answer the simple question, I needed to answer why. Below the clouds, the sunset It was a disappointing cold, wet air. Below the clouds, the sunset Was like a soul that didn't care. And as I soared the answer appeared As clear as day and night. As obvious as the dream in which I flew, As distinct as black and white. Above the clouds the air was clear The sunset was divine. The answer is to do whatever it takes To make the sunset shine.
