Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Days in the sun
When a life has barely begun
When no love, no prize can't be won
I remember warmly
[Verse 2]
Those days in the past
Far too perfect and peaceful to last
And the skies were soon overcast
And the days grew cold
[Verse 3]
Oh, those days in the sun
What I'd give to relive just one
Change what I've done
Turn my life around
[Verse 4]
But that isn't real
And the empty pain I feel
Goes on and on
And days in the sun are a long time gone
[Verse 5]
Days in the sun
Selfish days I used to call fun
Fooled myself, stealing love on the run
While the light was fading
[Verse 6]
That far, distant time
When I saw no reason or rhyme
To be changing my ways, but I'm
Not so certain now
[Verse 7]
And those days in the sun
What I'd give to relive just one
Change what I've done
Find some room for love
[Verse 8]
But I know the deal
And the empty pain I feel
Goes on and on
And days in the sun are a long time gone
[Verse 9]
I know the deal
And the love I must reveal
What I must do
For days in the sun to come shining through
