O Sunrise

Matt Hires

Sunrise, oh, sunrise,
Look in my eyes 'cause I know you can see.
Oh, I know you can see.
Swallow the darkness and color the sky
'Cause I want to believe,
Oh, I want to believe.

And lift up your head
'Cause I need you to hold me,
I need you to sing me your song.
And lift up your head,
Oh, the night's long and lonely,
And nothing's the same when you're gone.
Oh, nothing's the same when you're gone, oh.

Sunrise, oh, sunrise,
You sail through the sky
Like a ship on the sea, like a ship on the sea.
And breathing your light on, on the clouds passing by.
Won't you breathe it on me, won't you breathe it on me.

And lift up your head
'Cause I need you to hold me,
You've been away for so long.
And lift up your head,
Oh, the night's long and lonely,
And nothing's the same when you're gone.
Oh, nothing's the same when you're gone, oh.

Nighttime, oh, nighttime,
What will you say now that dawn's shining bright?
Will you just walk away?
Will you whisper my name from some darkened doorway?
Try to hide in my shadow and cover my face
So that I want to see, I said I want to see.
So sunrise, oh, sunrise keep shining on me, say oh, keep shining on me.

And lift up your head
'Cause I need you to hold me,
'Cause you've been away for so long.
And lift up your head,
Oh, the night's long and lonely,
And nothing's the same when you're gone.
And lift up your head,
Oh, I need you to hold me,
And you've been away for so long.
Lift up your head,
Oh, the night's long and lonely,
And nothing's the same when you're gone.
Oh, nothing's the same when you're gone.

Sunrise, oh, sunrise,
Look in my eyes 'cause I know you can see,
Oh, I know you can see.
