about

Written by Sarah Jay and Shez Seridan just after my beautiful daughter was born.
From the electronica project "3Days Later".

lyrics

YOU ARE THE SUN
THE FIRE THE START THE VITAL SPARK
A NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT KINDA LOVE
A WAVE THAT NEVER BREAKS
YOU’RE THE GROUND THAT NEVER SHAKES
MADE OF RAYS OF SUMMERS DAYS
A FEELING THAT I KNOW WILL NEVER GO AWAY
YOU’RE MY HUNGER CURED
AND SO WELCOME TO MY WORLD
CHS
THE SUN IS EVER TRUE
EVEN WHEN THE CLOUDE OBSCURE YOUR VIEW
AND YOU YOU ARE THE SUN
AND NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE YOU WILL SHINE ON

THE TIDE SHE CAME AND TOOK MY PRIDE
STRIPPED ME CLEAN OF MY DISGUISE
I WOKE UP AT THE DAWN
OF WHAT I’D BEEN SEARCHING FOR
IT’S NOT BELOW ME AND IT’S NOT ABOVE
JUST A NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT KINDA LOVE
BEAUTIFUL AND NEW
AND AMAZING ME IS YOU
CHS
THE SUN IS EVER TRUE
EVEN WHEN THE CLOUDS OBSCURE THE VIEW
AND YOU YOU ARE THE SUN
AND NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE YOU WILL SHINE ON

RAINY DAYS HAVE GONE
ALL THE WAY BACK WHERE THEY BELONG
CHS
