Intro

When I was young

Lying in the grass

I felt so safe

In the warming bath

Of sunlight

Of sunlight

Vast open sky

Could do no harm

Like an embrace

From mother's arms

In sunlight

In sunlight

In sunlight

In sunlight

With every year

That came to pass

More clouds appeared

‘Til the sky went black, And there was

No sunlight

No sunlight

And there was

No sunlight

No sunlight

Anymore

 And it disappeared at the same speed

 As the idealistic things I believed

 The optimist died inside of me

No sunlight

No sunlight

No sunlight

No sunlight

 And it disappeared at the same speed

 As the idealistic things I believed

 The optimist died inside of me

No sunlight

No sunlight

No sunlight

No sunlight

No sunlight

No sunlight

No sunlight

No sunlight

No sunlight

 Anymore
