He sits upon the empty sand
And gazes up to endless grey
The weathered face
And battered hands
Protest the soul
That carried them so far this way
The beaten skin is turning
To a wrinkled smile
And his eyes light up
To give his soul away
He said, "I'm waiting for a blue sky
I'm waiting for a bright day
I've been here through the wind and rain
Don't care what anybody says
I'm waiting for a morning bright
That fills the day
With all its clean bright light
I'm waiting for a blue sky
I'm waiting for a blue sky
Blue sky
Blue sky
Oh, I'm waiting for a blue sky
I'm waiting for a bright day
I'll be here through the wind and rain
I don't care what anybody else says
I'm waiting for a morning bright
That fills the day
With all its clean bright light
I'm waiting for a blue sky
Blue sky
Take a look at the blue sky
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, I'm waiting for a blue, blue sky
Blue sky
Take a look at the blue sky
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Blue sky
Blue sky
Blue sky
Blue sky
Blue sky
