Lyrics

Lover of the Sun

Mary, raise your head and look outside your window
You know we’ve come a long long way
Something calls me back to you whenever that old wind blows
I guess It’s like the storms that graced your ways

Dark haired lady, Lover of the sun
You’ve cast a shadow on the moon that’s got me on the run
I’ve been without you now, for much too long

I took a walk to see the house where you lived with your ma
Everything appeared to be the same
There were roses in your garden and a vine upon your wall
A picture of your life I’ll never frame

Dark haired lady, Lover of the sun
You’ve cast a shadow on the moon that’s got me on the run
I’ve been without you now, for much too long

Two people live inside me now and cannot get along
One must stay, the other one must change
I’ve tried to place the pieces of my life where they belong
But without your love its hard to rearrange.

Dark haired lady, Lover of the sun
You’ve cast a shadow on the moon that’s got me on the run
I’ve been without you now, for much too long
