Her day was born in shades of blue
  Her song was sad the words were true
  Her morning came too fast too soon
  And died before the afternoon
  Poor lady day could use some love, some sunshine
  Lady day has too much rain
  Poor lady day could use some spring, some breezes
  Lady day has too much pain
  It's such a lonely face
  Such a cloudy sky
  So many shadows in her eye
  So many empty dreams
  So many bitter times
  Just a handful
  Of broken rhymes
  Poor lady day could use a smile, some kindness
  Lady day has too much rain
  Poor lady day could use some dreams, some flowers
  Lady day has too much pain
  Just too much to say
  Just to much to know
  Too little time to say hello
  And then the evening comes
  And now she doesn't cry
  And it's too late to say
  Good-bye
