Every time the sun shines, to me it's a rainy day
He didn't see the summer go
Though, he knew what the shadows know
He didn't see his arms closed
He didn't feel his blood run cold
See me fly, see me cry, see me walk away
Every time the sun shines, to me it's a rainy day
They listened to his voice grow pale
No stamps were on the morning mail
They all listened to the white truck ring
Words just didn't mean a thing
See me fly, see me cry, see me walk away
Every time the sun shines, to me it's a rainy day

Though, he knew what the shadows know

He didn't see his arms closed

They listened to his voice grow pale

No stamps were on the morning mail

They all listened to the white truck ring

Words just didn't mean a thing

See me fly, see me cry, see me walk away

Every time the sun shines, to me it's a rainy day
