"High Of 75" Relient K

Matt Dowley

We were talking together

I said, "what's up with this weather?"

Don't know whether or not

How sad I just got

Was of my own volition.

Or if I'm just missing the sun

And tomorrow, I know,

Will be rainy at best.

And the forecast, I know,

Is that I'll be depressed.

But I'll wait outside

Hoping that I'll catch sight of the sun.

[Chorus:]

Because on and off,

The clouds have fought

Their control over the sky

And lately the weather

Has been so Bi-polar

And Consequently so have I

And now I'm sunny with a High

of 75

Since You took my heavy heart

And made it light

And its funny how you find

You enjoy your life

When you're happy to be alive

Using the aesthetic of Claude Monet’s painting of “Champ d'avoine “ a country side in France

where he retired and lived the rest of his days painting and spending time with his family. This

painting had drawn me in since I took a picture of the cornfields and the blue sky with clouds

decorating it so perfectly. Trying to find an artist that specialized in outdoor beauty, but simply

said makes Monet’s masterpieces priceless.
