Lyrics
[Verse 1]
as black as the night can get
everything is safer now
there's always a way to forget
once you learn to find a way how
[Verse 2]
in the blur of serenity
where did everything get lost?
the flowers of naïveté
buried in a layer of frost
[Verse 3]
the smell of sunshine
i remember sometimes
[Verse 4]
thought he had it all before they called his bluff
found out that his skin just wasn't thick enough
wanted to go back to how it was before
thought he lost everything
then he lost a whole lot more
[Verse 5]
a fool's devotion
swallowed up in empty space
the tears of regret
frozen to the side of his face
[Verse 6]
the smell of sunshine
i remember sometimes
[Verse 7]
i've done all i can do
COULD I PLEASE COME WITH YOU?
sweet smell of sunshine
[Verse 8]
i remember sometimes
