I Remember Lyrics - Coolio

I remember sky 

It was blue as ink 

Or at least I think 

I remember sky 

I remember snow 

Soft as feathers 

Sharp as thumb tacks 

Coming down like lint 

And it made you squint 

When the wind would blow 

And ice like vinyl on the streets 

Cold as silver, white as sheets 

Rain like strings 

And changing things like leaves 

I remember leaves 

Green as spearmint 

Crisp as paper 

I remember trees 

Bare as coat racks 

Spread like broken umbrellas 

And parks and bridges, ponds and zoos 

Ruddy faces, muddy shoes 

And light and noise 

And bees and boys and days 

I remember days 

Or at least I try 

But as years go by 

They're a sort of haze 

And the bluest ink 

Isn't really sky 

And at times I think 

I would gladly die 

For a day of sky
