The Music: Lyrics & Lead Sheets

verse 1:
I'm on my way to save the remains of a day.
I've got to run and catch the sun before it rolls away.
You look to be quite amused -- So funny you should say!
Thanks for the use of your blues, but I must be on my way.

chorus:
Cirrus skies turn blue and all the stars are all brand new
And there's nothing I can do,
but say good bye to you,
and be on my way....
I must be on, must be on, must be on my way

verse 2:
I've got to conquer my fright for the rest of the night.
Cold silent eye in the sky sees what's wrong and what's right.
You look to be very tired -- well it's always a fight!
To wait through the darkness and pray for the coming of light.

chorus:
Cirrus skies turn blue and all the stars are all brand new
And there's nothing I can do,
but say good bye to you,
and be on my way....
I must be on, must be on, must be on my way

verse 3:
I'm on my way to save the remains of a day.
I've got to run and catch the sun before it rolls away.
You look to be quite amused -- So funny you should say!
Thanks for the use of your blues, but I must be on my way.
