Stare at the Sun Lyrics
In the back of the of taxi, you turned off the TV
And read me a book on your phone
Here’s the return of your skeleton key
Oh baby the places we’ve gone
If that was goodbye then I must be high
You know I’ll be seeing you soon
If that was goodbye it'll snow in July
As it hailed in the middle of June
Give me your toothpaste
Give me your ointment
Give me your body in bed
Keep this in amber
Keep our appointments
Remember the things that we said
If that was goodbye then I must be high
You must be the sugar I need
If that was goodbye, I am a fly
The future is guaranteed
‘Cause when I’m with you everything’s treasure
I forget what it’s like to be gone
I’m far from the town in the suburbs of your pleasure
I've been in exile so long
I try not to stare at the sun
No, I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to stare at the sun
Cooperative coffee and synchronized showers
I try not to look at the clock
Goodbye to your castle
Wave from the tower
And drop me a line from the dock
If that was goodbye then you must be high
And maybe I'm losing the thread
If that was goodbye the sea has run dry
So I fill it in with tears instead
‘Cause when I’m with you everything’s treasure
I forget what it’s like to be gone
I’m far from the town in the suburbs of your pleasure
I've been in exile so long
I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to stare at the sun
‘Cause when I’m with you everything’s treasure
I forget what it’s like to be gone
I’m far from the town in the suburbs of your pleasure
I've been in exile so long
I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to stare at the sun
And read me a book on your phone
Here’s the return of your skeleton key
Oh baby the places we’ve gone
You know I’ll be seeing you soon
If that was goodbye it'll snow in July
As it hailed in the middle of June
Give me your ointment
Give me your body in bed
Keep this in amber
Keep our appointments
Remember the things that we said
You must be the sugar I need
If that was goodbye, I am a fly
The future is guaranteed
I forget what it’s like to be gone
I’m far from the town in the suburbs of your pleasure
I've been in exile so long
I try not to stare at the sun
No, I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to look at the clock
Goodbye to your castle
Wave from the tower
And drop me a line from the dock
If that was goodbye then you must be high
And maybe I'm losing the thread
If that was goodbye the sea has run dry
So I fill it in with tears instead
I forget what it’s like to be gone
I’m far from the town in the suburbs of your pleasure
I've been in exile so long
I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to stare at the sun
I forget what it’s like to be gone
I’m far from the town in the suburbs of your pleasure
I've been in exile so long
I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to stare at the sun
I try not to stare at the sun
