England Skies
Finding Solace Beyond Grey Skies
Lyrics
You're used to grey England skies
You are accustomed to the gloomy skies of England
Cloudy days, colder nights
Experiencing cloudy days and colder nights
And your heart's not right
Your emotional state is not well
Thought you'd be quite happy there
You expected happiness in the warm New York air, but your emotional well-being is still not right
In that warm New York air
Despite being in New York, your heart is not in the right place
But your heart's not right
Your emotional state remains unsettled
But if you sing along with me
Encouraging you to sing along
Do you think you could ever smile again?
Asking if singing could bring a smile back
If you sing this melody
Asking if singing this melody could make you laugh again
Do you think you could laugh again, my friend?
Encouraging you to try for happiness
Just try for me
Requesting you to make an effort
Sing
Encouragement to sing
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Repetition for emphasis on the encouragement to sing and find joy
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh, oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh, oh
-Don't wait for England to chime
Advising not to wait for England to bring joy
Not for your heart or mine
Not relying on England for emotional fulfillment
I know time is never kind
Acknowledging that time can be harsh
You missed your warm winter boots
Mentioning the nostalgia for warm winter boots
Say the tea's not as good
Noting that tea is not the same, but expressing optimism about being okay
But you'll be alright
Assuring that despite differences, things will be alright
Everyone is going out
Observing people going out in summer attire
In summer hats and colored tee shirts now
Describing a cheerful scene with hats and colorful t-shirts
Take a walk around the park
Suggesting a walk in the park for a better future
I know it will be better soon somehow
Expressing belief that things will improve somehow
Just try for me
Reiterating the encouragement to try for a positive change
Sing
Encouragement to sing
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Repetition for emphasis on the encouragement to sing and find joy
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh, oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh, oh
-And I'll keep on waiting
Expressing commitment to wait for someone
I'll keep on waiting
-I'll keep on waiting
-For you
-Oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Repetition for emphasis on the commitment to wait
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh, oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh, oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh, oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh, oh
