Skies of Amber
When I think of days gone by,
and watch the clouds all fill the sky,
It takes me backwards in time,
when I knew things would be fine.
The roads were bumpy and hard,
while driving to Texas in my car,
watching double rainbows in the sky,
missing your birth just makes me cry.
Chorus
Give me amber skies to dream on,
and butterfly kisses at night,
give me something to believe in,
and I'll never give up the fight.
I recall the long race against time,
when God's gift was partially mine,
and though I had no claim to you,
over the years my love for you grew.
Though many moments have gone by,
you've always been my Amber Sky,
and the changes God had to make,
brought us together for His sake.
Chorus
Give me amber skies to dream on,
and butterfly kisses at night,
give me something to believe in,
and I'll never give up the fight.
Dedicated with love to
my niece Amber Sky

I watched the cars pass by on the far highways...(oh all my

It comes around again
That lonesome feeling
