Derroll Adams - The Sky lyrics

There's a time when the truth is bad And that's so very sad I know When I was a kid like a mother's sigh I used to hear the freight train cry They kept me on the go you know Even now I stop to hear The big freight-trucks a-shifting gear They tell me what I want to know you know There's a time when the past is past Filled with things that never last I know The freight trains lonesome whistles cry Becomes a song but there's the sky Spring always comes again again That old car it was Christmas time Filled with kids and they all were crying They had no place to go I know There's a time when you face your soul To find if you are true and whole you know I remember your face so clear Sometimes it seems I hear The softness of your sigh But remember another time Autumn's here and summer's dying You asked me not to go There's a time when you face the sky To find if you are here and why you know The freight trains far away cry Or on the ground when the dew's not dry And you hear a rooster crow Just like a morning star That you see so far Through the clear sky the sky
