The Sun, It Rose

Way down in the valley of shadows,

My love took my hand

Led me to where water flows,

And I saw Heaven there

We sipped on the deities’ wine,

We danced on golden sands

We lived there on borrowed time,

I didn’t know it then

And the sun, it rose,

The gold light came

The sun, it rose,

And I loved you one more day

Bitterness, it grows like vines

Chokes out all it holds

I fought the dark each night

But you let in the cold

And the sun, it rose,

The gold light came

The sun, it rose,

And my love, it slipped away

Slipped away

But I loved you one more day, hmm

One more day

Ooh, ooh

And I held you close, like I didn’t know

Heaven would go, take down the gold

I held you close, like I didn’t know

I’d soon wake alone on a bed of stone

And the sun, it rose,

The gold light came

The sun, it rose,

And in my dreams, you stayed

One more day, hmm

And I loved you one more day

Hmm
