Sun Quite that Way

about

The Sunrise is Nature's way of reminding us that everything begins in beauty.

lyrics

I’ve never seen the sun
rise quite that way
and I’m grateful
for today
and tomorrow:

I guess I’ll let time
take it’s own course
and I’ll
take mine.

You stand before me
quite perplexed
asking how can you stand
to wait for the next
hour of the day;

I can’t make time stand still,
I can’t make it rush,
it’ll come soon enough

Bridge:

Pictures of bliss
look remarkably
like this,
and I don’t want my
pictures of the world
to come straight out
of some picture book

Guess I could
read a newspaper or a book,
sip a coffee,
but I’d rather look around
take all this in;

If today be the day I die
I wouldn’t want it to be
words occupying my time

I’ve never seen the sun rise quite that way
