Just when I think there’s no chance at all
Just when I think it’s the final fall
Through the gray and cloudy skies
There comes a sliver of blue, shining through, that’s you
Paths I’ve chosen seem unimportant these days
Struggling through the morass of disappointing ways
That I’ve chosen to travel
Mysteries I’ve forgotten to unravel
Too busy these days to see my soul
Got lost along a lonely road
On the path of a simple fool
When all I want is a sliver of blue
Suffering sorrow makes me ache in my soul
Struggling each day to attain no sure goal
Think it would help if I knew what to do
I just keep hanging on for a sliver of blue
Chances are I will make my last stand
Fight the good fight and play my last hand
But you know I’m sure I will lose
Then all I’ll have left is a sliver of blue
Too busy these days to see my soul
Got lost along a lonely road
On the path of a simple fool
When all I want is a sliver of blue
Just when I think there’s no chance at all
Just when I think it’s the final fall
Through the gray and cloudy skies
There comes a sliver of blue, shining through, that’s you
