I Remember Sarah Lyrics


I remember sky
It was blue as ink
Or at least I think
I remember skyI remember snow
Soft as feathers
Sharp as thumb tacks
Coming down like lint
And it made you squint
When the wind would blowAnd ice like vinyl
On the streets
Cold as silver
White as sheets
Rain like strings
And changing things
Like leavesI remember leaves
Green as spearmint
Crisp as paper
I remember trees

Bare as coat racks
Spread like broken umbrellasAnd parks and bridges
Ponds and zoos
Ruddy faces
Muddy shoes
And light and noise and
Bees and boys
And daysI remember days
Or at least I try
But as years go by
They're a sort of haze
And the bluest ink
Isn't really sky
And at times I think
I would gladly die
For a day of sky
