SKY
J. Goodwin
October 23, 1985
I have built a wall
Around this screaming place
And I sense confinement
Within your face
There is no reason
None at all
The last bit of blue is fading
From the sky
CHORUS
A clouded sky
All across the land
The plains and the mountains
Have all been touched by man
Does this ballad have an ending
Does it just go on
A purpose for the sake of looking
I have not found
You will learn to love
Get the feeling inside
Someone's standing with their arms wide open
Try to touch the sky
And now the walls come down
Escape if you wish
If you find a purpose
The sky will open wide
CHORUS
A clear blue sky
All across the land
The trees and the ocean show
There still is hope for man.
