A Day Without You Is Like a Day Without Sunshine

You let me see 
          the sun shine 
                    even when the sky is grey
I can feel
          the warmth of it, too, 
                    on the coldest winter day
My skin, it sears 
          to a brown 
                    from each ray that you allow
My dear, 
          you are the sunshine
                    that exists for here and now
