Unruly Child

Waiting On The Sun

Unruly Child


In the warm light of the morning
Tears come, do they ever leave
Should love begin anew
Like rain falling down on a desert world
In the aftermath the colors bleed inside
In quiet shades of blue
The sunrise returns again alone
And the shadow still hides from you

Waiting on the sun
In the wilderness, the lonely one
And the wilderness can hold you down
Reachin' for the sky
Better lift your wings and say good-night my love
Are you sleeping
In silent dreams left waiting on the sun

In the real world we move and dance
Play illusion anytime
Just when the child grows to forget
We invent the boundary line

If life and love are a fable read
By an hour, late of night
It only stands to reason
We can change the story-line
Bring back the love the shadow tries to hide

Waiting on the sun
In the wilderness, the lonely one
And the wilderness can hold you down
Reachin' for the sky
Better lift your wings and say good-night my love
Are you sleeping
In silent dreams
Are they keeping our darkest secrets
Are shadows slowly creeping
In silent dreams left waiting on the sun
