nothing else will do



gray 
tired and quiet 
and mean
picking at a worried seam
. . .

oh, such a prima donna
sorry for myself 

but green, it is also summer
and I won't be warm
until I'm lying in your arms





I've gotta have you
the weepies

summertime truths


I went to the market
though it was threatening rain
the streets filled with umbrellas
and we all look the same

but I'm the one who's waiting
'til the sun comes out again


I was made for sunny days
I make do with gray
. . .
but I was made for sunny days
and I was made for you

I was made for sunny days
the weepies
