Over the Rhine - Lifelong Sunshine lyrics

The moon blind-sided the sky again As we grabbed loose ends of the tide and then The slippery slide You know I can't say when I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly With roiling joy Lazy as sin Lyin' up in heaven with my special friend And the space he's in It can make a girl grin In the beginning of a lifelong fling I wrote down a dream I folded the note Slipped in the pocket of my tattered coat I wrote down a dream In invisible ink It never was mine I'm beginning to think I wrote down a dream What more could I do I drew myself a picture and the picture was you I wrote myself a riddle I said what I wouldn't do To give something good to a love like you The moon blind-sided the sky again As we grabbed loose ends of the tide and then The slippery slide You know I can't say when I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly With roiling joy Lazy as sin Lyin' up in heaven with my special friend And the space he's in It can make a girl sing In the beginning of a lifelong fling I wrote down a dream I folded the note Pa**ed it to you we stepped in our boat Sailed 'round the world We were hoping to find More than the sum of all we left behind I wrote down a dream But what was it now And why does it all feel so distant somehow Did I take too long Did I get it wrong You're still the missing line in my favorite song The moon blind-sided the sky again As we grabbed loose ends of the tide and then The slippery slide You know I can't say when I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly With roiling joy Lazy as sin Lyin' up in heaven with my special friend And the space he's in It can make a girl sing, sing yeah Ain't no sunshine when you're gone Ain't no sunshine when you're gone Ain't no sunshine when you're gone And he's always gone too long Anytime he goes away. Wonder this time where he's gone Wonder if he's gone to stay Ain't no sunshine when he's gone And this house just ain't no home Anytime he goes away. Ain't no sunshine when you're gone And he's always gone too long Anytime he goes away. Wonder this time where he's gone Wonder if he's gone to stay Ain't no sunshine when he's gone And he's always gone too long Anytime he goes away. Ain't no sunshine when he's gone And he's always gone too long Anytime he goes away. Ain't no sunshine when he's gone And he's always gone too long Anytime he goes away.
