Just Another Rainy Sunshiny Day (the lyric)...

...of course, the 'blog' presents items in order of appearance, and the 'reflection' on this lyric will be below this page... apparently there is no way to mess around with the format, so...

 

my brother tasked me to write him this song...

he asked when we both knew his time was not long...

he said: "I'll leave it to you, just what to say; but call it

'Just Another Rainy Sunshiny Day'..."...

 

we shared a room; a decade but light years apart.b..

I fell asleep to 'Only the Lonely'... 'Only Love Can Break Your Heart'...

he slipped into psychosis to the hits of the day as they'd play...

working on his own rainy sunshiny day...

 

now I don't know just where it went wrong

can you blame a sad slow radio song?

Roy Orbison, Gene Pitney, too...

'Town Without Pity'... 'Blue Bayou'...

 

now it's just another rainy sunshiny day

clouds of my own making keeping blue skies at bay

I suppose... I surmise... that these tears in my eyes

come with just another rainy sunshiny day...

 

now it's just anther rainy sunshiny day

how I wish he was here, so I could play

my simple song for him... hear what he'd have to say

about 'Just Another Rainy Sunshiny Day'...

 

no, I don't know just where it all went wrong

can you blame a sad, slow radio song?

Roy Orbison... Gene Pitney, too...

'Town Without Pity'... 'Blue Bayou'...

(then perhaps a reference to Don and Phil)

"Love Hurts... love scars... love wounds... and mars...

 any heart.. not tough... or strong... enough... to take a lot of pain..."

(the Everly Brothers hit written by Felice and Boudeleaux Bryant, of course).
