Lyrics of Mr. Blue Sky - 2012 Version by Electric Light Orchestra
intro
Good morning
Today′s forecast calls for blue skies
verse
The sun is shining in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight
It′s stopped raining, everybody's in the play
And don't you know, it′s a beautiful new day, hey
Running down the Avenue
See how the sun shines brightly
In the city, on the streets where once was pity
Mr. Blue Sky is living here today, hey
chorus
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?
verse
Hey, you with the pretty face
Welcome to the human race
A celebration, Mr. Blue Sky′s up there waiting
And today is the day we've waited for, oh, oh, oh
chorus
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?
Hey there, Mr. Blue
We′re so pleased to be with you
Look around, see what you do
Everybody smiles at you
hook
Mr. Blue Sky
Mr. Blue Sky
Mr. Blue Sky
verse
Mr. Blue, you did it right
But soon comes Mr. Night
Creeping over, now his hand is on your shoulder
Never mind, I'll remember you this
I′ll remember you this way
chorus
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?
Hey there, Mr. Blue (Sky)
We're so pleased to be with you (Sky)
Look around, see what you do (Blue)
Everybody smiles at you
Writer(s): Jeff Lynne
