lyrics

SAID THE SUN TO THE NIGHT

"It would be nice to see you
I left your pages white
'cause I've spent my life believing
that someone like you cannot exist,"
said the Sun to the Night
"help me put out this light."

"You lay by the ocean
while he drowned at your feet
showing all his devotion
he peacefully sang himself asleep
and now it hurts even more
to watch him cling to the shore."

"I turn around and I hope
that when I look for you, you'll be there
I should just hold you but I get tired
and convince myself that if I let you go you'll be ok
and I ask for your permission to be free."
"They placed the Earth between us
and half of the Moon
now she rolls-by and you leave
the minute I walk into the room
did you do it for me or just for them to see?"

"And we could make them wonder
we could make them see
and I would face this hunger
till darkness comes calling back to me."
"But you're not the one,"
said the Night to the Sun.

"I turn around and I hope
that when I look for you, you'll be there
I should just hold you but I get tired
and convince myself that if I let you go you'll be ok
and I ask for your permission to be free
I have this one condition, to be free."
