[Verse 1]

The sky was dark this morning

Not a bird in the trees

Silence hung suspicious and anxious

Like a blanket-covered scream

[Pre-Chorus 1]

You were gone

You were not there for me

And I cursed the sky

[Chorus 1]

And begged the sun to fall all over me

This life's not living, baby, living ain't free

And if I can't find my way back to me

Let the sun fall down over me

Let the sun fall down

[Verse 2]

All my friends are searching

Quiet, desperately

Look into their eyes, you'll see the faithless crying

"Save me, save me, save me"

[Pre-Chorus 2]

And what are they to feel?

Who are they to be?

What am I to do with, do with me?

[Chorus 2]

Just let the sun fall over me

This life's not living, baby, living ain't free

And if I can't find my way back to me

Let the sun fall down over me

Let the sun fall down

[Bridge]

Till my eyes cry out

Till my head is free from doubt

Till my lungs sigh right out

Till I'm wiser

Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Guitar Solo]

Yeah!

[Chorus 3]

Oh, let the sun fall over me

This life's not living, baby, living ain't free

And if I can't find my way back to me

Let the sun fall down

Let the sun fall over me

This life's not living, baby, living ain't free

And if I can't find my way back to me

[Outro]

Let the sun fall down over me

Let the sun fall down over me

Let the sun fall down over me

Let the sun fall down over me
