Lyrics:

Met her for some gin one day
Cloudy sky’s grey
A look and smile. Vibe that way
Summertime cannot explain

Arching back, ebb and flow
Cloudy skies. Gray
Ashy windows. Cars below
Hot to touch. A curling flame

Standing bare, her breathless face
Cloudy skies grey
I dream, she said, to live in space
Moon or Mars, my song’s the same

Afternoon, unmade bed in
Cloudy sky’s gray.
Calm, bliss, in my head
Pull too tight a broken chain

Gone, she tossed her long brown hair
Cloudy skies so gray
Forgot to ask, meant to share
My blue umbrella. What a shame!

Can't recall, could have broken
Cloudy sky that day
Last goodbyes left unspoken
Darker now and pouring rain

Summertime can't explain
Darker now and pouring rain
Hot to touch a curling flame
Darker now and pouring rain
Moon or mars, song’s the same
Darker now and pouring rain
Pull too tight, a broken chain
Darker now and pouring rain
Blue umbrella, what a shame
Darker now and pouring rain
