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
