I would shun the light Share in evening's cool and quiet Who would trade that hum of night For sunlight, sunlight, sunlight 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 your love is sunlight Oh your love is sunlight But it is sunlight Oh, the tale is the same Told before and told again A soul that's born in cold and rain Knows sunlight, sunlight, sunlight 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 something foreknown to me, 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 All these colours fade for you only Carry me slowly, my sunlight All these colours fade for you only Carry me slowly, my sunlight Each day you rise with me Know that I would gladly be The Icarus to your certainty Oh my sunlight, sunlight, sunlight Strap the wing to me d**h 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
