"Windows open and raining in MAROON, yellow, blue, gold and grey."
"With the sky blue sky this rotten time wouldn't seem so bad to me now"
I heard Jeff Tweedy perform this back when it was called Lullaby for Rafters and Dreams at one of his solo shows in Southern Illinois and it took my breath away. After the show I mentioned to my friend that the lyric 'sky blue sky' really made me smile and was amazingly descriptive for its redundancy.
The song, to me, is just the concept of hope and how even on the saddest of days if you look outside and see nature smiling bright and sundrenched, you are at your core made at least slightly happy.
A few corrections (I could be wrong)
