so you ask me why i m so blue well you got open fields and blue blue skies up above you and your white clouds are never never turning gray oh you got everything you need ask you why must i be happy cause i don t need the sun to rise in the mornin and i like my sky to stay dark and cloudy you know i like a good storm when it comes so let the cold take me in its arms sail you cynical man just like you ve always been and you said i ll die alone that would be after you re gone and your harsh words still linger and my friends keep on tellin me to move on ask them why i let this consume me if it s all i want cause i don t need to be loved or love someone it s an empty space in my heart might never fill but what do i care if i die alone just let the cold take me in its arms cause i don t need the sun to rise in the morning
