lyrics
The sun lays to rest
And it’s a beautiful sight
The stars bright
The sky is blessed
The moon shines so bright
And there’s so many ways you can too
And the sun, and the sun
We’re all there, the few of us
And the fire it burns as we discuss
She spends her words on me
I’m collecting them by the sentence
And I agree
She looks back down and I know she’s mine
And the sun lays to rest
And she’s a beautiful sight
Her eyes bright, I am blessed
And the moon shines so bright
And there’s so many ways we can too
And the sun, and the sun
We move to the fire
And it speaks to us in sizzle and snap
As we lay by each other
We find ourselves speaking back
Morning rays reach my eyes
Through the window I see
Blue and green compromise
And I see the heart of bliss
It’s the valley of dreams
For you and me, full of promise
She looks back down
And I know she’s mine
(Chorus)
We find the things inside us that we lack
And we move to the fire whoa
As we lay by each other whoa
And it’s a beautiful sight
The stars bright
The sky is blessed
The moon shines so bright
And there’s so many ways you can too
And the sun, and the sun
We’re all there, the few of us
And the fire it burns as we discuss
She spends her words on me
I’m collecting them by the sentence
And I agree
She looks back down and I know she’s mine
And the sun lays to rest
And she’s a beautiful sight
Her eyes bright, I am blessed
And the moon shines so bright
And there’s so many ways we can too
And the sun, and the sun
We move to the fire
And it speaks to us in sizzle and snap
As we lay by each other
We find ourselves speaking back
Morning rays reach my eyes
Through the window I see
Blue and green compromise
And I see the heart of bliss
It’s the valley of dreams
For you and me, full of promise
She looks back down
And I know she’s mine
(Chorus)
We find the things inside us that we lack
And we move to the fire whoa
As we lay by each other whoa
