Patches Of Blue

(album: Better Things In Life - 1969)

I see patches of blue all the clouds drift away
Your love put the blue skies back in my lonely days
I thought the sun would never shine in this lonely world of mine
Then you came by now there's patches of blue in my lonely sky

Yesterday was gone still I kept hanging on to old memories
And constantly the past would haunt my dreams
And cloudy skies would seem to fill my empty days with such a lonely gray
A world without sunshine a world all alone
Tied to a mem'ry that still lingered on
Till you came my way now I somehow forget yesterday

And I see patches of blue all the clouds drift away
Your sweet love put the blue skies back in my lonely days
I thought the sun would never shine in this lonely world of mine
Then you came by now there's patches of blue in my lonely sky
