Days in the sun

When my life has barely began

Not until my whole life is done

Will I ever leave you

Will I tremble again

To my dear one's gorgeous refrain?

Will you now forever remain

Out of reach of my arms?

All those days in the sun

What I'd give to relive just one

Undo what's done

And bring back the light

Oh, I could sing

Of the pain these dark days bring

The spell we're under

Still it's the wonder of us I sing of tonight

How in the midst of all this sorrow

Can so much hope and love endure?

I was innocent and certain

Now I'm wiser but unsure

(Days in the past)

I can't go back into my childhood

(All those precious days)

One that my father made secure

(Couldn't last)

I can feel a change in me

(Oh, hold me closer)

I'm stronger, but still not free

Days in the sun will return

We must believe as lovers do

That days in the sun

Will come shining through
