Sad, Sad Sunshine
Wild-eyed and flashin' cast upon me with the dawn
I have grasped the realization of the new day when it's born
And while looking through a window framed with curtains that are worn
There is darkness even in the brightest morning
As the sun it slowly rises there is judgment in its glare
And it seems too much to ask to light a face that isn't there
And the feelings that are wasted make you feel it isn't fair
When she leaves without a whispered word of warning
Sad, sad sunshine
Waking only those who really know
Sad, sad sunshine
Wonder why you've kissed her with your glow
Magazines of memories I've read a thousand times
Just seem to find their way inside me like a dollars worth of dimes
There's only one for every ten, no matter where ya try to climb
And the walls around me aim in one direction
I can still recall the drops of evening in your eyes
And your leaving in the morning should have come as no surprise
To one who based his way of living on another's world of lies
Oh, I do not ever claim to seek perfection
Sad, sad sunshine
Waking only those who really know
Sad, sad sunshine
Wonder why you've kissed her with your glow
