A Sky With No Blue

(Paula Joy Welter)
Sitting on my deck, shortly after a marriage ending, I looked out over the valley of Coloma, across to the Sierra Nevadas...and thought about love and the opposite sides it sometimes presents anyone who takes the chance.
A SKY WITH NO BLUE
Copyright 1995, Paula Joy Welter

Were it not for the valleys below,
Moutains wouldn't seem so high.
Farewell is an end to hello
And goodbyes always make me cry

CHORUS:
A girl without freckles
Is like a night without stars,
Just as songs full of longing
Seem made for guitars
And love without kisses
Is like a child with no wishes
And me without you is a sky with no blue,
Oh, me without you is a sky with no blue

VERSE II:
Were it not for the warmth of sunlight,
Flowers wouldn't grow and bloom.
What would we see at midnight
If somebody stole the moon?

CHORUS REPEATS
