Sun’s Gone

The sun’s just gone and the day grows quiet I’ve got a light You can’t see On the inside The city lights are sparkling With airplanes taking off Like bits of city floating off And I’m afraid it’ll take my life Some sacred part of me Just to let it Turn again to morning [Chorus:] The animal that flies Is the darkest part of the sky The animal that dives Deep under the ocean Carries its own light Every time that I arrive And I think to stay Something moves I lose my way And I’m looking for the window I find nothing but wall I hang a picture Of what I’m after And all the red points of light In my little life Are blinking at me Who will answer? [Chorus] I see nothing Do you feel a warm jet? I barely can This is no rescue I understand I’ve made a mess again Do you feel it happening? I think I can The sun’s just gone and the day grows quiet I’ve got a light You might see On the inside The city lights are sparkling With airplanes taking off Like bits of city floating off Just when I think it’s too late Like some final hour The earth rolls over And brings light to new ground
