Hey, misty, you are lovely
Dancing through the sky above me
Evening light glows dimly through your dress
Hey, misty, so serenely
Wrap up all the colors neatly
Store them far away on days like this
Hey, misty, darling vapor
Whitest skin like satin paper
Come embrace me silently in shroud
Hey, misty, bring your kisses
Sprinkled on the window gently
Smother me in counterpanes of cloud
Sun lit the clouds on fire
Their tender bellies all ablaze
Outrun the rebel sky
To conquer the horizon
Extinguished with the night
We burried bright and golden rays
Before the moon defied
A company of shadows
The particles collide
Ephemeral electric seams
Divide the atmosphere
They reach to touch the surface
But when the dawn replies
Rekindled by the Phoenix beams
Sun fires reappear
Atop the distant curtains
And I split the rebel sky
In a violent forward thrust
Until heaven opened wide
For a caravan of us
In the dying afternoon
Bathed in copper-toned resolve
We were bigger than the sky
And we painted it with love
The sky cried “mutiny”
The blue jumped ship
Into a sea of white
And now it covers me
Like waves of pale
Awash across the light
The sun is drowning in
A tidal wave
Of color-vacant hues
The waters overhead
Have swallowed up
The last and best of blue
And we are left here
In zero visibility
A quiet rest where
The atmosphere collapsed
I must confess: here
In zero visibility
I’m better dressed for
My disappearing act
Beneath the vapor
In zero visibility
The clouds have anchored
The buildings fade to shapes
I want to stay here
In zero visibility
To hide away here
In blankets of the grey
Hey, the skies are all grey
The horizon is faded
And the light has been drained
The mist sucked the color from out of the leaves
I wept with the clouds when it started to rain
Oh, the sun doesn’t know
The world has grown cold
Out of reach of his glow
In moods of December we danced through the shroud
Trailed by the hint of a shadow below
Hey, we don’t have to wait
For cover of darkness
To come out and play
It’s vampire weather, let’s go for a walk
We can stay lost for the rest of the day
Oh, and when light arrives
When these disguises
Uncover the sky
I’ll stay beside you where I can still find
It’s vampire weather that colors your eyes
