Under the Blue Skies

If the sun didn't come up today
Or if you went away
I'd be okay
Under the blue skies

I could tell something wasn't right
Your smile not quite as bright
You wouldn't look me in the eyes
You just stared up at the skies

Under the blue skies
Everything is okay
Under the blue skies
Everything seems fine
When you are mine
Under the blue skies

I was surprised the night wasn't dark
As I spent my time alone in the park
The sunshine gave me no warning
As it broke into morning

I didn't know if I would return
Maybe just to earn
What I'd been looking for
In the skies of before

Under the blue skies
Everything is okay
Under the blue skies
Everything seems fine
When you are mine
Under the blue skies
