Loneliness
Rise Like The Sun
MP3 (3.5mb)

1 Loneliness - throw it away
Let it fall like the leaves to the ground
Let it rot and decay
Let the happiness I once knew rise like the sun
Let the dawn and the morning dew bring a new day
How can a new day come?

2 Now you’re gone and I’m without you
I might well walk the streets without aim
I might well catch the moon
Now the happiness we once shared is scattered with the wind
It cuts to my soul, squeezes my heart
Tears me apart - what’s new?
Lonely hours, lonely days, loneliness without you

Mid I thought I was free from heartache
I thought I was strong
I thought I was capable, not emotional
Now I see I’m wrong

Instrumental

3 Now you’re gone and I’m without you
I might well walk the streets without aim
I might well catch the moon
For the happiness we once shared is scattered in the clouds
If I reach for the sun I get burned, I get scarred
- torn apart. What’s new?
Lonely hours, lonely days, loneliness without you
