Chris Alma Jose - A Brighter Touch of Haze (Reprise) Lyrics

Here at the house I would wait for the sun
Sitting by the window sill
Six in the morning the coffee's all gone
Soon I'll be paying the bill

And just when the papers tell me
To look at this town
The victim and the clown
You paint a perfect place
With a brighter touch of haze

Waiting for the bus at the corner down the block
Trying to make the pieces fit
The lady behind me she looks at the clock
She drives a point home to the pit

And just when the days seem cynical
And starts picking on the town
The victim and the clown
You fill an empty space
With a brighter touch of haze

And in between, I laugh and cry
And in between, I wonder why

Here at the house if there's anything to say
It's either you've lost or you've won
The colors on the TV screen all turn to gray
And the channels all flip back to one

But just when the day is over
The heroes of the town
The victim and the clown
When leaves start falling
Untangles the kite from the night
As the thought of tomorrow
Slips through the cracks
And I just can't relax
You veil a worried face
With a brighter touch of haze
