Sun shinin', sun shinin'
Through your window
Makes that dancing dust glow
Waltzes you away like a ghost
And empty space left in your place
Filled with a blue daylight low
Tries to break through hat blanket
To lift me up and save my soul
Sun shinin', sun shinin'
And left all alone
In a house where we once made some love, I suppose
And I might have one more song in my lungs for the road
You got so many a tune
But from January to June
I just help with he cold
And I'm weathered
Like the desert is old
Smoking guns all surround
Every love I've ever known
And the good and the bad make their rounds
Hunt you down like hounds
Circle like sharks till you're old
But if that sand's on your face
You will never be green, you'll always be gold
Sun shinin', sun shinin'
Help me walk out the door
Do just what you've done
Each and every time before
And then light a path, real exact
So I don't have to think anymore
Illuminate exactly what I'm searching for
Sun shinin', sun shinin'
Set me free, I'm tied to so many old forgotten strings
And from all angles, they entangle
I'm the singer of their weave
Waiting on a fresh start, a clean slate
The old snip and release
And I'm on fire like a choir when it sings
Burning fingerprints, trails and scents
Bridges and energy
And when I'm done with all this I hope there's room to breath
Somewhere to go
Where I can have the sun on my face
I don't wanna be green
I just wanna be gold
