When The Sun Comes Back (feat. Brittany Church)

Another day o' cloudy skies

feelin' low an' I don't know why

I guess it shouldn't be news to me now

It's been this way for centuries, but I'm holding out

I heard from legends and crystal ball

Sun gave warmth to the great and small

I saw the smiles good ol' Ray put on their face

It ain't too much to want gentle grace

This pessimism brings my brain a schism,splittin' up my mind

But I know before too soon I’ll find

Footsteps on my porch of ultraviolet kind

When the sun comes knockin’ at mah door

And after I pick my jaw off the floor

I’ll “come in stranger!” It’s been too long a while

He’ll hang up his hat with a radiant smile

I’ll ask where he’s been for all of these years

We’ll talk about his travels over two or three beers

I’ll hang on every word, lookin’ forward to brighter days

When the sun comes back to stay!

Maybe he just read the sign wrong

Or fell asleep waitin’ on his train

Or the Galaxy Express takes a century, no less

To come back round our way, again!

Everyone says your gone, but I know you’re only late

I’ll leave the light on, if you reciprocate

Just promise you’re back and we won’t get burned

You’ll be the prodigal sun as far as I’m concerned

When the sun comes knockin’ at mah door

And after I pick my jaw off the floor

I’ll “come in stranger!” It’s been too long a while

He’ll hang up his hat with a radiant smile

I’ll ask where he’s been for all of these years

We’ll talk about his travels over 2 or 3 beers

I’ll hang on every word, lookin’ forward to brighter days

When the sun comes back to stay!

Come on back baby, we miss you.
