And now she wakes to another grey day

In the Big Blue World

And her room's a tiny cage for a golden bird

O where did love go?



And now the baby, that looks like him,

Starts to cry again

And again, again, eternally over again

Do rivers ever end?



Count a thousand drops of rain

Washed down the drain

Is life the same, in a way?



Catch the bus that never comes

Clouds block the sun

Is life the same, in a way?



What will tomorrow bring?

Will birds sing?



And now the flowers in the window box

Seem to bow their heads

As she sits and stares with eyes, sad circles of red

where did love go?



Never a letter or a call

A knock upon the door

So much like life, in a way



Watch the hands move round the clock

Tie time in knots

Life does the same, in a way



What will tomorrow bring?

Will birds sing?



Let the birds sing!



And now she sleeps in an empty bed

Through a starless night

But she dreams of snow-white doves

Bringing branches of love

maybe that's enough



Count a thousand drops of rain

Washed down the drain

Is life the same, in a way?



Catch the bus that never comes

Clouds block the sun

Is life the same, in a way?



Never a letter or a call

A knock upon the door

So much like life, in a way



Watch the hands move round the clock

Tie time in knots

Life does the same, in a way



What will tomorrow bring?

Will birds sing?
