CHASING UP THE SUN


 

CHASING UP THE SUN

DARK NOW THE PLACES

WE USED TO GO

LOCKED AND SHUTTERED

BRACED AND WAITING

FOR THE SNOW

LIKE A DEAR LOST FRIEND

OUT THERE TIL THE END

THE LIGHT

ONLY BENDS SO FAR

BEFORE IT BREAKS

THE SHADOWS

IT CREATES

 

SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE LINES

A STORY

AS OLD AS TIME

TIL WE GROW SO OLD

WE CAN'T GO

SITTING BY THE FIRES GLOW

REFLECTED IN OUR EYES

AND THE YOUTH THAT FLEW BY

CHASING UP THE SUN

BENEATH THE GREAT WIDE BLUE

 

YOU THINK YOU'RE THERE

BUT THE END WAS MOVED

HOW MUCH MORE TO PROVE

WAITING STILL YET AGAIN

SOMEWHERE NEAR THE BEGINNING 

OR CLOSER TO THE END

ALL OF IT

EVERY BIT OF YOUR LOVE THAT

YOU CAN SEND

CHASING UP THE SUN

IT NEVER ENDS

SHIVER

ALL GONE BLOWN AWAY

ANOTHER PAST

ANOTHER DAY

NO MATTER HOW MUCH

WE WISH

 IT GOES AWAY

SUMMERS GONE 

HIGH FIVE GOODBYE

SEE THE SUN GET SHY

MILES AND MILES

OF DARKENED SKIES

APPROACHING SIN

THE WALLS SOON BE CLOSING IN

 STILL HAVE TO GO

IN THE COLD AND SNOW

 

SHIVER

MY RESOLVE BEGINS TO CRACK

HOME BY THE FIRE

I CAN'T WAIT TO BE THERE

SHIVER

I CAN'T LET GO

WINTERS ICY SHOW

SURROUNDS ME

SHIVER

COLD AND BLUE

WHAT MUST I DO

TO GET BACK TO

THE SUN

 

ONCE IT GETS STARTED

IT CAN'T BE

UNDONE 

NO MERCY FROM THE COLD WINDS

 BLOWING

HOW SHY THE SUN

HOW GRAY THE SKY

HOW COLD ARE YOU

HOW COLD AM I
