Why Was I Born? - Lena Horne

We’ve been waiting, anticipating change coming our way

You’re my baby through the bad lights to the greater days

I know that something good is waiting just around the corner

There’s a new day dawning, there’s a new life for us

Got to keep on holding on for just a little longer I know

But that it’s gonna be blue skies for you and I

We’ll step out of the shadows and walk into the light

Yeah it’s gonna be blue skies for you and I

But my heart beats slow as the storm carries on up high

And the clouds roll by

I can feel it, it’s a comet, fast and fierce and wild

I can see it every time I look into those eyes

Tell me is it really gonna storm again

Will the sky turn dark, will the rain begin?

I wanna be with you wherever lightning strikes cause I know

That it’s gonna be blue skies for you and I

We’ll step out of the shadows and walk into the light

Yeah it’s gonna be blue skies for you and I

But my heart beats slow as the storm carries on up high

And the clouds roll by

And the clouds roll by

I couldn’t stand the rain for one more day

I know we can make it go away

Can you feel it?

Like a fever, burning till it breaks

Blue skies for you and I

We’ll step out of the shadows and walk into the light

Yeah it’s gonna be blue skies for you and I

But my heart beats slow as the storm carries on up high

And the clouds roll by

Blue skies, blue skies (and the clouds roll by)

Blue skies, blue skies (and the clouds roll by)

Blue skies, blue skies (and the clouds roll by)

Blue skies, blue skies (and the clouds roll by)

Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue…
