lyrics

Drifter, maybe
Dreamer, absolutely
A fervent disbeliever in compromise
Your mouth and your eyes always say the same thing
That's a rare thing
Rare as yellow skies

Not a family man, so they say
Are there certain things you never got over to this day?
Could it have been any other way?
Or would you do the same thing?
You rare thing
Rare as yellow skies

And in the place where impossible meets inevitable
That's where you'll find the glow
The one in your eyes when you sing
It's a pain that peaks just below unbearable
It's the heart the breaks to reveal the morning

So let the drifters drift
And the dreamers absolutely
And resolutely struggle through the compromise
The whole thing is designed to take care of itself
So take care of yourself
Don't you worry 'bout the yellow skies
