A Break in the Clouds lyrics

I met a man I didn't know

that asked me: "How are you doing?"

Shoulda just said, "Fine,"

'cause it's all he wanted to hear

But for reasons unknown in a sorrowful tone I said

"Man, it's been a hell of a year,

And I don't really know where I'm going

And I might just be hanging around

If life's shades of gray

Then I guess you could say

That I've been waiting for a break in the clouds."

I went to go see some gypsy to tell me my future

But she asked for my photograph instead

As I walked through the cold

with my fortune untold I said

"Good luck trying to reach me when I'm dead.

'Cause I don't really know where I'm going

And I might just be hanging around

If life's shades of gray

Then I guess you could say

That I've been waiting on a break in the clouds.

That I've been waiting for a break in the clouds.

I saw the love I used to know swallow me whole

On a day I was out of clean clothes

She sized me up and she said,

"Honey, how is your head?"

I said, "You can't call me honey

but, honey, heaven only knows."

And I don't really know where I'm going

And I might just be hanging around

If life's shades of gray

Then I guess you could say

That I've been waiting for a break in the clouds.

Bet your gonna be findin' a break in the clouds

No, no, no I don't know where I'm going

And I might might might just be hanging around

And if life shades of gray

Then I guess you could say

That I've been waiting for a break in the clouds.
