Looking out from my window I found the view
The one I'd been trying to find
It'd been spitting rain all day and the sky was a deep dark ugly mean grey
And I, I was just fighting for the light

Then the heavens opened wide
And the clouds did divide
And all that I could see for miles and miles and miles and miles were

Blue skies
All the way from here to South Carolina
Blue skies
All the grey had turned to color before my eyes
Blue skies
Goodbye to the doubt that once filled my eyes
Blue skies
There's hope for another day, hope for another day with
Blue skies

I was lying in my bed last night aligning myself in one mind
I was teaching myself "Breathe in, and let go"
I offered up a little prayer
I promised myself I could keep it right there
But all its earnestness made it up and take flight

Then the heavens opened wide
And the clouds did divide
And all that I could see for miles and miles and miles and miles were

Blue skies
All the way from here to South Carolina
Blue skies
All the grey had turned to color before my eyes
Blue skies
Goodbye to the doubt that once filled my eyes
Blue skies
There's hope for another day, hope for another day with
Blue skies
