Album Version: found on the album
'Beautiful Collision'.
So I'm listening for the weather
to predict the coming day
Leave all thought of expectation
to the weatherman
You know it doesn't really matter
what it is he has to say
'Cause tomorrow's keep on blowing
in from somewhere
All the people that I know, the apartments
down below,
busy with their starring roles in
their own tragedies
Chorus:
Sunlight sends you on your way
And those restless thoughts that
cling to yesterday
Never be afraid of change
I'm calling on the phone
I hate to leave you on your own
but I'm coming home today
And this busy inner-city has got
nothing much to say
And I'll know how much you're hanging
round the letterbox
And I'm sure that as I'm writing
you'll be somewhere on your way,
in the supermarket check-out or
a restaurant
I've been doing what I'm told, I've
been busy growing old
and the days are getting colder
- that's alright with me
(Chorus)
I've been doing what I'm told, I've
been busy growing old
and the days are getting colder
- that's alright with me
Sunlight sends you on your way
And those restless thoughts that
cling to yesterday
Never be afraid of change
