Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wanna talk to the silver sun
Run through the jungle with a candy gun
Write my name up on the clouds
Smoke all day, never coming down
[Chorus]
I'm gonna sleep on the sun
Gonna walk on the sky
Gonna live till I die
[Verse 2]
I wanna trip through the pouring rain
Ride the river like the king of Spain
Hell on wheels, with a Heaven's rise
Let the daylight fade in my eyes
[Chorus]
I'm gonna sleep on the sun
Gonna walk on the sky
Gonna live till I die
[Chorus]
I'm gonna sleep on the sun
Gonna sleep on the sun
Gonna walk on the sky
Gonna walk on the sky
Gonna live till I die
I'll live till I die
Written by: Beck Hansen, Dan Auerbach, Patrick Carney
