Keane - Clear Skies lyrics

High on the bell tower i took my view
Over the downtowns and the avenues

Where the streets are wide
And the people thrive
And it's further to fall down
Cause you fly so high

I've never seen such beauty
I've never seen such clear skies
I've never seen such high hopes
I've never seen such tired eyes
And I wish that I could be
Everything you are everything you are

Down in the delta the city wakes
Turns on the TV as the levee breaks

Where the streets are burned hot summer sun
And there's nowhere to run to
When your time has come

I've never seen such beauty
I've never seen such clear skies
I've never seen such high hopes
I've never seen such tired eyes

Pull the roots up piece by piece
Love lives watching over me
Take my pills and went to sleep
Oh, and I sang myself to sleep

And I wish that I could be
Everything you are everything you are
And I wish that I could see
The world the way you do as selfishly as you

And I wish that I could be
Everything you are everything you are

And I wish that I could state
My faith the way you do as certainly as you
Clear skies going to fall on you
Clear skies going to fall on you
Clear skies going to fall on you
On you, on you
Clear skies going to fall on you clear skies
