Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I just don't trust the sun tonight
When I can't see your eyes
You're my reason for breathing
[Verse 2]
The napkin inks the words away
My numb dismay is deafening I
Forget to blink
And I used to love a bar full of flickering stars
Far from home
[Verse 3]
But I'm pressing down and angering my bones
Though if he came within swinging distance Sonny Jim
I would still go through the hold
And it's cold in Chicago
[Verse 4]
I just don't trust the sun tonight
When I can't see your eyes
You're my reason for breathing
[Verse 5]
Archipelago go gone
We pushed the boat out too far this time
Something we dared never dream on TV every day
And eye for an eye, for an eye, for an eye
For an eye, for an eye, for an eye
[Verse 6]
Can I interest you a day?, I refuse to be afraid
Was your girl a world away?
Who sees love in other people
[Verse 7]
I just don't trust the sun tonight
When I can't see your eyes
You're my reason for breathing
I just don't trust the world to spin
If I can't pull you in
You're my reason for breathing
