Lyrics

When you wake up bright for the morning
Then your mind moves / without warning
Make your way outdoors to the sunlight
Feel the first rays / like a frostbite

All that noise beneath / any city street / was my downfall
but I resolve to stand tall
You can't catch me sleeping
and you won't find me weeping
cuz I got time to make up for my past mistakes / today / my day
The clouds just break away

When I look outside at the weather
rain or shining / I feel better
If I hang on tight to this feeling
Do the foxtrot / on the ceiling

All that noise beneath / any city street / was my downfall
and I resolve to stand tall
You can't catch me sleeping
and you won't find me weeping
cuz I got time to make up for my past mistakes / today / my day
The clouds just break away

Holding out for sweet degrees
Only brings you to your knees
When the sunshine beats your brow
Keeps the focus from the now
Dangerous like hurricanes
But they might be in my brain

Make a point to dial the sun
When I can't reach anyone
(I don't wanna get so tied up in a rainbow)

Weatherman, don't bother me
With your cold philosophy
On a sunshine afternoon
Could be now or could be June
Natural to such a T
How the raindrops fall for me
And they turn to lemonade
As they rain on my parade
On my fav'rite holiday

All that noise beneath / any city street / was my downfall
and I resolve to stand tall
You can't catch me sleeping
and you won't find me weeping
cuz I got time to make up for my past / but sure no time to take up space
today / today / one day / someday
The clouds just break away
