Blue
The Men From U.N.C.L.E Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sun is shinin' in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight.
It's stopped rainin'
Everybody's in the play.
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day
Hey, hey
Runnin' down the avenue
See how the sun shines.
Brightly in the city on the streets
Where once was pity.
Mister Blue Sky
Is living here today
Hey hey

Mister Blue Sky
Please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong?
Mister Blue Sky
Please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong

Hey
You with the pretty face
Welcome to the human race.
A celebration
Mister Blue Sky's up there waitin'
And today is the day we've waited for

Mister Blue Sky
Please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Hey, there
Mister Blue
We're so pleased
To be with you look around
See what you do everybody smiles at you.
Hey there Mister Blue
We're so pleased to be with you

Mister Blue
You did it right
But soon comes Mister Night creepin' over
Now his hand is on your shoulder
Never mind
I'll remember you this
I'll remember you this way.
Mister Blue Sky
Please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong
Hey there
Mister Blue
We're so pleased
To be with you look around
See what you do everybody smiles at you.




Hey there Mister Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
