Sight of the Sun

Lyrics

[Chorus] For once, there is nothing up my sleeve Just some scars from a life that used to trouble me I used to run at first sight of the sun Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up [Verse 1] The city outside still sounds like it's on fire You put on new sheets, the white flag of a Saturday night I know we stayed up talking in circles But I like to think the symmetry will keep me close to you [Pre-Chorus] For everyone I'm out to prove wrong, you keep the light on The only one, you know me better than the truth So, despite what I've done, I pray to God That we can move on 'Cause thus far you are the best thing that This life has yet to lose and [Chorus] For once, there is nothing up my sleeve Just some scars from a life that used to trouble me I used to run at first sight of the sun Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up I lay here waiting for you to wake up [Verse 2] So if you're gonna leave, if you're gonna go I can't bear to sleep without you in my arms I know we got caught up Sifting through a crowd of pebbles and lures But you must not let them take you They don't know you like I do [Chorus] For once, there is nothing up my sleeve Just some scars from a life that used to trouble me I used to run at first sight of the sun Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up I lay here waiting for you to wake up [Bridge] Do you remember when we stayed up 'Til the sun stretched through the room? I used to blame it on the queens walkin' down 7th Avenue It's been years now since we moved I've gotten good with an excuse You know I try not to speak superlatives But it's impossible with you [Outro] The city outside is nothin' but a flicker now You see your friends to bed, you turn out the lights I start to think you'll make a beautiful mother, I I like to think I have everything I want from this life
