Sunscreen
What do you do when someone has soaked up all the rays of the sun?
All the love in your heart?
It has dried out like a tomato on a hot summers day would.
We spray the weeds with pesticide And mow the lawn just to look a bit neater
On a hot summers day
Even if you are not here;
You proceed to take my breath away
So much time has gone on,
I thought I would not be singing the same old sad song
But I was wrong;
As the day went on, and the sun sank lower
The moon was bright and looked much fuller
"Can I see it" the little girl asked
Can I see it!?
Can i see it!?
So much excitement for such a short amount of time
Sounds like what happens when you love the wrong guy;
My soul withers away in the dark
I am only filled now with sad remarks
One day, the sun will rise again and I will be cured
But until that day comes I will just remain there lying in the sun
