Searching for the Sun

Searching for the sun, searching for it
Wouldn’t you give it up for this
Looks like you forgot, looks like you did
I don’t think I’ll find it here
I don’t think I’ll find it
In this mist I’m blinded
Now I feel divided
Was this sun always here and will it go?
Will it go away?
I’m drawn to the shadows, the shadows
The seasons will pass me by
If I do not let go, in time
Give and take, give and take
Won’t you let the sun rays guide you away
Give and take, give and take
Won’t you let the sun rays guide you away
Searching for the sun, searching for it
Wouldn’t you give it up for this
There’s nothing wrong with what I’ve got, you know what it is
Yes I know I’ll find it here
I’m drawn to the shadows, the shadows
The seasons will pass me by
If I do not let go, in time
Give and take, give and take
Won’t you let the sun rays guide you away
Give and take, give and take
Won’t you let the sun rays guide you away
Give and take, give and take
Won’t you let the sun rays guide you away
Give and take, give and take
Won’t you let the sun rays guide you away
Give and take, give and take
Won’t you let the sun rays guide you away
Give and take, give and take
Won’t you let the sun rays guide you away

Astray

We’ve been looking around
Trying other things
Muffling the sound
Of our dainty heart wings
You’ve had a bit of me
Had a bit of her
But we can’t stop desire
It’s a blessing not a curse
Close your eyes and step into the ring
Who blows first, I cannot hear another thing
The world is only hard dear if the man you’re loving is going astray
Days are only long dear if the woman in love is slipping away
The world is only hard dear if the man you’re loving is going astray
Going astray
And what’s with the sky
Crying again
As long as it lasts
I’ll be sadder than the rain
I know I couldn’t need you more
Than I do today
But it’s hard to ignore
The desire this way
Close your eyes and let love wander in
Who goes first, I cannot miss another thing
The world is only hard dear if the man you’re loving is going astray
Days are only long dear if the woman in love is slipping away
The world is only hard dear if the man you’re loving is going astray
Going astray
The world is only hard dear
Days are only long dear
The world is only hard dear
Days are only long dear, long dear, long
The world is only hard dear if the man you’re loving is going astray
Days are only long dear if the woman in love is slipping away
The world is only hard dear if the man you’re loving is going astray
Days are only long dear if the woman in love is slipping away
The world is only hard dear if the man you’re loving is going astray
Days are only long dears if the woman in love is slipping away
The world is only hard dear if the man you’re loving is going astray
Going astray

Bow To You

And I know that it’s right
There’s never room to think twice
You can’t see in these clothes
In these moments, nothing on show
We’re all servants of something of many or someone
But your world doesn’t come close
It just feels good when the money flows
I’ll bow to you, bow to you, bow to you
Not if I can fight it
Not if I can bring this house down
Not another night here
I’ll bow to you, bow to you, bow to you
Not if imma fight it
Not if I can bring you to the ground
Not another night here
I’ll bow to you, bow to you
I’m leaving no one behind
This where we show pride
For the rhythm we know
That will get you up to go
We’re all searching
Moving as one, moving as one
And I feel so alive
Moving as one, moving as one
I’ll bow to you, bow to you, bow to you
Not if I can fight this
Not if I can bring this house down
Not another night here
I’ll bow to you, bow to you, bow to you
Not if I can fight, fight, fight, fight
Not if I can bring this house to the ground
Not another night here
I’ll bow to you, bow to you, bow to you
Not if I can fight it
Not if I can bring this house down
Not another night here
I’ll bow to you, bow to you, bow to you
Not if I can fight it
Not if I can bring you to the ground
Not another night here
I’ll bow to you, bow to you, bow to you
Not if I can fight it, fight it
Not if I can bring this house to the ground
Not another night here
I’ll bow to you, bow to you, bow to you
Not if I can fight it, fight it
Not if I can bring it to the ground
Not another night here, no
I’ll bow to you, bow to you, bow to you

Old Parade

Somewhere, some day
It will all melt away
The moment I see your face
My nights mellow tune
Is part of the old parade
It will all melt away
The moment I see your face
Somewhere, sunny days
Will melt away
The walls that make up this place
When I seem blue
A part of you finds its way
To melt away
The walls that make up this place
