Sad to Be Sad

I've spent most my time making plans Trying so hard, just to watch them upend One gust from the fall gale, a casual command Torn from the tree with one graze of your hand Morning's attack on my pride was aware The sun had prepared for this great solar flare He was here for a minute and then he was gone Orbit around him, caught up in the pull It's so sad to be sad that I just had to laugh My time for sorrow should surely have passed But I'm blue, all shades of blue, grey and black too And there's nothing, I can do No cure and no clue Now I glance around at a tired old scene Think of the days when he'd run back to me A shoulder to cry tears of purple and teal But when I look to my side, it's the rain that I feel It's so sad to be sad that I just had to laugh My time for sorrow should surely have passed But I'm blue, all shades of blue, grey and black too And there's nothing, I can do No cure and no clue
