I wait
For the day
Where I can call
Things what they are
How I miss
Blue skies, blue skies
Not long ago
I saw us flourish
Free to humanize
Now skies are red
And I crave
Blue skies, blue skies
I saw
Nations fall down
I mourn long
When old minds die
I cried a prayer
Wanting a way
To be free again under God
Now skies are red
And I crave
Blue skies, blue skies
Blue skies, blue skies
