Sunlight

I would shun the light, share in evening's cool and quiet

Who would trade that hum of night?

For sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

But whose heart would not take flight?

Betray the moon as acolyte

On first and fierce affirming sight

Of sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

I had been lost to you, sunlight

And flew like a moth to you, sunlight, oh, sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

But it is sunlight

All the tales the same

Told before and told again

A soul that's born in cold and rain

Knows sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

And at last can grant a name

To a buried and a burning flame

As love and its decisive pain

Oh, my sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

All that was shown to me, sunlight

Was somethin' foreknown to me, sunlight, oh sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

But it is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

But it is sunlight, sunlight

Oh, and these colors fade for you only

Hold me, carry me slowly, my sunlight

Oh, all these colors fade for you only

Hold me, carry me slowly, my sunlight

Each day, you'd rise with me

Know that I would gladly be

The Icarus to your certainty

Oh, my sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

Strap the wing to me

Death trap clad happily

With wax melted, I'd meet the sea

Under sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

But it is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

But it is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

But it is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight

But it is sunlight

Sunlight, sunlight, sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
