When the night lies so still
 Before I go to sleep
 I come by, I come by
 Just to look at you
 In the dim light I say
 That in my own small way
 I will try, I will try
 To help you through

 There'll be blue skies falling
 There'll be bad scenes and bad dreams
 In a world so uncertain
 Through the clouds it's hard to see
 I will grab you and lift you
 As you hold on tight and sway
 We'll go walking
 Across the fields of gray

 There's a place I can go
 When the world gets me down
 When nothing, when nothing
 Goes quite right it seems
 As I look there I know
 Fortune smiles on me so
 But who knows, no one knows
 About tomorrow

 There'll be blue skies falling
 There'll be bad scenes and bad dreams
 In a world so uncertain
 Through the clouds it's hard to see
 I will grab you and lift you
 As you hold on tight and sway
 We'll go walking
 Across the fields of gray

 When I was younger I saw things in black and white
 Now all I see is a sad, hazy gray
 Sometimes I see a narrow flash of light
 Sometimes I look and you show me the way

 No matter what else happens
 What the future will be
 In a world so uncertain
 Through the clouds it's hard to see
 I will grab you and lift you
 Calm your fears if you're afraid
 We'll go walking
 Across the fields of gray
