Lyrics
Drifting Sun
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, sitting on a stone
Sitting all alone
Sticky things are rolling down the mountain
Well, see the lonesome tramp
Who's living in the damp
Nobody´s in the valley
Shine on, shine on, sun
Oh, it's so cold right here
Shine on, shine on, sun
Shine on all night long
Daydreams are of silent blue
Icy wings will carry you
Midnight sun will never shine
Just ravings of a fool you think
And laugh about him all the time
Shine on, shine on, sun
Oh, it's so cold right here
Shine on, shine on, sun
Shine on all night long
White pale velvet autumn sun will fade away
Forgotten life will finish now in endless grey
Some days are drifting haze
Some days are glowing blaze
Some days are tides of life
Staggerin' along a tropic highway
Crazy lights are whirling round and round
Hell or heaven, night or day?
Burning fingers push the sun away
Shine on, shine on, sun
Shine on all Night long
