I used to think life was paintings in the sky
And the paint brush was always in my mind
Words were my frame
And melodies were a signature in my name
And the notes told the story of my life
Don't go chasing sunsets
You'll lose your heart
Don't go running from yourself
You'll forget who you are
Don't let life pass you by
There's a spirit in the sky
And don't go chasing sunsets
You'll lose your heart
When you get caught in the rain
And your heart's full of pain
And you're standing alone
Wondering why life had to change
Lift up your head
Paint a picture instead
Of blue skies Blue Skies
Blue Skies, Blue Skies
Paint your picture
Don't go chasing sunsets
Cause' you're a star
Be who you are
Ooh be who you are
Cause you're a star
Don't forget yourself now
Come on back now to who you are
Don't go chasing sunsets
You'll lose your heart
Don't go running from yourself
You'll forget who you are
Don't let life pass you by
There's a spirit in the sky
And don't go chasing sunsets
You'll lose your heart
Don't go chasing those sunsets baby
Cause you'll lose your heart
Don't go running from yourself
You'll forget who you are
