As I wake up this morning
The clouds are dark and grey
You left without a warning
This is my saddest day.
Outside the sky is weeping
Soft tears upon the ground
Into the earth they're seeping
Whilst you are homeward bound.
I hear a Blackbird singing
A song so sweet and clear
And I know he is bringing
A message to me here.
He says that you are keeping
a watchful eye on me
That I can catch you peeping
If I have eyes to see.
The clouds are slowly moving
Into Infinity
The weather is improving
Now you are here with me.
