In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE
SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE, OUT!
Everybody waits for the light
Scared? - don't be scared!
The sun shines on my eyes
And the sun will keep on shining tonight
As the world counts to ten
[ONE]
Here comes the Sun
[TWO]
Here comes the sun
[THREE]
It is the brightest star of all
[FOUR]
Here comes the sun
The sun shines from my hands
It burns and perplexes you
So if it starts breaking fists
The sun's face will become heated
The sun will keep on shining tonight
As the world counts to ten
Refrain:
[ONE]
Here comes the Sun
[TWO]
Here comes the sun
[THREE]
It is the brightest star of all
[FOUR]
Here comes the sun
[FIVE]
Here comes the Sun
[SIX]
Here comes the sun
[SEVEN]
It is the brightest star of all
[EIGHT]
Here comes the sun
The sun shines from my hands
It burns and perplexes you
So if it starts breaking fists
Heat will be put on your face
It will hurt you on the chest
As the equality is lost
It lets you go down hard when
The world counts to ten
[ONE]
Here comes the Sun
[TWO]
Here comes the sun
[THREE]
It is the brightest star of all
[FOUR]
From heaven, it shall never fall
[FIVE]
Here comes the Sun
[SIX]
Here comes the sun
[SEVEN]
It is the brightest star of all
[EIGHT, NINE]
Here comes the sun
SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE, OUT!
Everybody waits for the light
Scared? - don't be scared!
The sun shines on my eyes
And the sun will keep on shining tonight
As the world counts to ten
[ONE]
Here comes the Sun
[TWO]
Here comes the sun
[THREE]
It is the brightest star of all
[FOUR]
Here comes the sun
The sun shines from my hands
It burns and perplexes you
So if it starts breaking fists
The sun's face will become heated
The sun will keep on shining tonight
As the world counts to ten
Refrain:
[ONE]
Here comes the Sun
[TWO]
Here comes the sun
[THREE]
It is the brightest star of all
[FOUR]
Here comes the sun

Here comes the Sun

Here comes the sun
The sun shines from my hands
It burns and perplexes you
So if it starts breaking fists
Heat will be put on your face
It will hurt you on the chest
As the equality is lost
It lets you go down hard when
The world counts to ten
[ONE]
Here comes the Sun

I think the beginning, if heard of the radio or TV, mite make people want to turn the TV off as it sounds like a dance songs about to start, but the rest of the song is brilliant, this is the only rammstein song i like, its not that they're bad, i think its excellent that they've broke into the UK!
