Karaoké I Remember Evening Primrose (comédie musicale)

I remember sky

It was blue as ink or at least I think

I remember sky

I remember snow

Soft as feathers

Sharp as thumb tacks

Coming down like lint

And it made you squint when the wind would blow

And ice like vinyl on the streets

Cold as silver

White as sheets

Rain like strings

And changing things like leaves

I remember leaves

Green as spearmint

Crisp as paper

I remember trees

Bare as coat racks

Spread like broken umbrellas

And parks and bridges

Ponds and zoos

Ruddy faces

Muddy shoes

Light and noise and bees and boys

And days

I remember days or at least I try

But as years go by they're a sort of haze

And the bluest ink isn't really sky

And at times I think

I would gladly die for a day of sky
