I Remember/Stranger Than You Dreamt It 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 squintWhen the wind would blow
And ice like vinyl on the streets
Cold as silver, white as sheets
Rain like springs 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
Light and noise and bees and boys
And daysI remember days

Or at least I try
But as years go by
They're sort of hazeAnd the bluest ink
Isn't really sky
And at times I think I would gladly die
For a day of sky
