In The Sun

Funny. Two different songs. Two very different emotions. Two people, two choices.
The Sun features in both. It amuses me. Not that I'm reading too deep into anything. Nope, I never do that. Do I?


In the Sun- Joseph Arthur

I picture you in the sun wondering what went wrong
Falling down on your knees asking for sympathy
And being caught in between all you wish for and all you need
Trying to find anything you can feel that you can believe in

May gods love be with you
Always
May gods love be with you

I know I would apologize if I could see your eyes
cause when you showed me myself I became someone else
But I was caught in between all you wish for and all you need

I picture you fast asleep
A nightmare comes
You cant keep awake

May gods love be with you
Always
May gods love be with you

Cause if I find
If I find my own way
How much will I find
If I find
If I find my own way
How much will I find
You

I don't know anymore
What its for
I'm not even sure
If there is anyone who is in the sun
Will you help me to understand
cause I been caught in between all I wish for and all I need
Maybe you're not even sure what its for
Any more than me

May gods love be with you
Always
May gods love be with you



She's Only Happy in the Sun- Ben Harper

I know you may not want to see me
On your way down from the clouds
Would you hear me if I told you
That my heart is with you now

She's only happy in the sun
She's only happy in the sun

Did you find what you were after?
The pain and the laughter brought you to your knees
But if the sun sets you free, sets you free
You'll be free indeed, Indeed

She's only happy in the sun
She's only happy in the sun

Every time I hear you laughing, I hear you laughing
It makes me cry
Like the story of life, of your life
Is hello, goodbye

Shes only happy in the sun
Shes only happy in the sun


Absurdly childish to post about this.
But well, one song reminds me exactly of why I left.
One reminds me of what I can have.

Right now, I don't want either.
