One day, not long ago I asked the Sun to stay Stand by me forever and love me no other way There was no reply, no other way But I felt it tried to stay And so (and so) I asked the Sun to stay And so I asked the Sun to stay But knew I'd let her go some day (let her go someday) But knew (but then I knew, but then I knew) I'd let her go some day (let her go someday) Verse 2 When the tilt of earth had worn away the glow The warmth we once felt had gone away Love has found a new place A new home in what I used to know And so (and so) I asked the Sun to stay And so I asked the Sun to stay But knew I'd let her go some day (let her go someday) But knew (but then I knew, but then I knew) I'd let her go some day (let her go someday) Verse 3 After all this time The Sun will never shine It lights up the sky like it once felt that day Brings joy and happiness but always goes away And so (and so) I asked the Sun to stay (I asked the Sun to stay) And so I asked the Sun to stay But then I knew I'd let her go some day (let her go someday) But then I knew Would let her go, let her go, let her go, let her go some day, some day I asked the Sun, I asked the Sun to stay But then I knew, but then I knew I had to let her go someday But then I knew I had to let her go someday Ayy, ayy, and so, and so And so, and-and-and so It was the hardest decision to make But I knew I had to let her, let her go some day But then I knew I'd let her go some day But knew I'd let her go some day
