I’ve realized my days without you

Have been cold and cloudy,

Why can’t we just go back,

Back to when things were warm


In the fall I fell for you all over again

Just like the leaves falling from the tree

When I see you in the halls

I feel like a fresh sunburn

Red and swarming with heat


I want the storm to stop

No more rain, no more thunder

A single ray of sunshine

To break through the clouds


A ray of hope, bursting through

The gray, looming clouds

Giving me a glimpse of a better

Path filled with nothing

But clear skies
