OVERCAST

Mmm mmm mmm…

Ahh ahh ahh…

Oh hazy night…

Release your capture

Let it shine…

Oh dusky sky…

Gift me the pleasure

Of the light…

Believe me when I tell you

This is something that I need

Oh lazy night…

Set the moonlight free

~~~*Chorus*~~~

Oh I wish I had the magic that would cast a crucial spell

I’d wipe the darkness from the skies, and free the light myself

I wouldn’t stand here begging to the grievous, somber gloom

I’d seize the dazzling sun

Harness the lustrous moon

Dispel the mournful…

Overcast of you

~~*~~

Mmm mmm mmm…

Ahh ahh ahh…

Oh cloudy day…

Retreat and scatter

Share the sun…

Oppressive skies…

Grant me the treasure

Of the light…

Believe me when I tell you

It is vital what I plead

Oh dreary day…

Set the sunlight free

~~~*Chorus*~~~

Oh I wish I had the magic that would cast a crucial spell

I’d wipe the darkness from the skies, and free the light myself

I wouldn’t stand here begging to the grievous, somber gloom

I’d seize the dazzling sun

Harness the lustrous moon

Dispel the mournful…

Overcast of you

~~*~~

Mmm mmm mmm…

Ahh ahh ahh…

Oh reverent light…

Received and enforced

In my heart…

Blameless skies…

Forgive my demands

And my plight…

Believe me when I tell you

I was just too hurt to see

The needed light

It was inside me

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~

I let you obscure the beauty… once striking in my life

Solicit the darkness, to shadow what was fine

I was ranting at the heavens, no sanity of mind

You overcast the light, until I pushed you aside

And waged a war for what was mine

I’m enveloped by the brilliance shining through

No overcast of you

~~*~~

~~~*Finale*~~~

Oh I always had the magic that would cast a crucial spell

To wipe the darkness from the skies, and free the light myself

No I don’t stand there begging to the grievous, somber gloom

I seized the dazzling sun

Harnessed the lustrous moon

Dispelled the mournful…

Overcast of you

~~*~~
