You've got stars overhead
I've got wind chill well below negative ten
I've got snow and I've got ice
I've got sun, I've got rain
I've got you all the same
I've got rain, I've got sun when it shines
And I got strings and calloused fingers
A scratchy throat, a melody that lingers
I've got paper, I've got ink
I've got a bunch of notes I've scribbled down, I think
I can make a song somehow
And when I'm gray and blue
I've got pictures of you
And when I'm blue and gray
I've got clouds to chase away
You've got green ocean eyes
I've got dreams as the crow flies
I've got cold, I've got clean Midwestern sunlight
I found peace in my heart
You burn like a fire in the dark
I've got heat, I've got embers, I've got sparks
The past is dead, but lives on through memory
A clouded head that is my history
Some of my friends, they love their misery
But as the river bends, embrace uncertainty
I've got paper, I've got ink
I've got a bunch of notes I've scribbled down, I think
I can make this song somehow
And when I'm gray and blue
I've got pictures of you
And when I'm blue and gray
I've got clouds to chase away
You've got green ocean eyes
I've got dreams as the crow flies
I've got cold, I've got clean Midwestern sunlight
I found peace in my heart
You burn like a fire in the dark
I've got heat, I've got embers, I've got sparks
You've got stars overhead
I've got wind chill well below negative ten
I've got snow and I've got ice
I've got sun, I've got rain
I've got you all the same
I've got rain, I've got sun when it shines
I've got rain, I've got sun when it shines
