Sunlight II Lyrics

The window to my soul is made with stained glass

The road to my heart, overgrown with grass

A light that burns bright with the curtain closed

Kept in a box to have but not hold

Emperor's new clothes worn off the rack

Off the rails so much it's hard to keep track

Opening packages before they arrive

But you never succeed if you never try

Whenever the clouds come in

You let the sunlight in my heart

Through skin that's thick or thin

You turn the canvas into art

Whenever I've lost my way

One look at you is all I need

To take away the doubt

To turn the barren soil green

Growing older but stuck in youth

Always stuck between two half-truths

Some people see things in absolutes

Nothing between too loud and mute

Asleep or awake, who's to say?

Sometimes, tomorrow's just a dream away

And sometimes love is a lullaby

Or a morning kiss to open your eyes

Whenever the clouds come in

You let the sunlight in my heart

Through skin that's thick or thin

You turn the canvas into art

Whenever I've lost my way

One look at you is all I need

To take away the doubt

To turn the barren soil green
