Sun is shinin' in the sky,
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin'
Everybody's in a play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day, hey.
Runnin' 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.
(X2)
Mr. Blue sky, please tell us why,
You had to hide away
For so long (so long), where did we go wrong.
Hey you with the pretty face,
Welcome to the human race
A celebration Mr. Blue sky's
Up there waitin' and today
Is the day we've waited for [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/e/electric_light_orchestra/mr_blue_sky.html ]
Mr. Blue sky, please tell us why,
You had to hide away
For so long (so long), where did we go wrong.
(X2)
Hey there Mr. Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do,
Everybody smiles at you.
(Mr. Blue Sky, Mr, Blue Sky, Mr.Blue Sky)
Mr. blue you did it right,
But soon comes Mr. Night,
Creepin' over, now his
Hand is on your shoulder,
Never mind I'll remember you this
I'll remember you this way
Mr. Blue sky, please tell us why,
You had to hide away
For so long (so long), where did we go wrong.
(X2)
Hey there Mr. Blue (sky)
We're so pleased to be with you (sky)
Look around see what you do,
Everybody smiles at you.
Actually, they were in a hotel on a tour in europe, cooped up because it was raining super hard outside, then all of a sudden, the sun comes out and the sky shines. Jeff then says, "hello, mr. Sky! " and smiles. It is then turned into the sone, mr. Blue sky. Who knew that terrible weather could lead into something so beautiful? :d
This song is about somebody that made someones life much better, but when he left things didn't seem right so they ask, "why did you leave? Was it our fault? " mr. Bluesky got corrupt and got in trouble, but his friends said, "we will remember the old you. Not the new you. "
