This sun has no light This sun only gives shade Like a lost minnow on the ocean The sun gives nothing away The sun has no light The sun has no shade Like a drying river The suns falling away Come around and see Be my desperate companion Take the clothes from me And fold them in the meadows When nobody believes me I'll say goodbye to the frost And if you can't trust me You might see the birds in the dusk This sun has no light This sun only gives shade Like a lost minnow on the ocean The sun gives nothing away The sun has no light The sun has no shade Like a drying river The suns falling away I wrapped a warm moment In a cold paper bag And I took too long to notice The strangers counted on my hand And I strapped lost sleep Triggered with my fingers before A shadow lost inside me I moved like a flooded fever Like a flooded fever Like a flooded fever This sun has no light This sun only gives shade Like a lost minnow on the ocean The sun gives nothing away The sun has no light The sun has no shade Like a drying river The suns falling away
