lyrics

The tears running down my face
Are the rusted souls thru time
Seeing distant pasts thru dustpan eyes
On eagle wings they must fly.

Stuck in a soundproof garden
I wanna hear you callin'
Like a voice carried by the wind

But only the sun comes up for nothing
Just along the glittering horizon
Only the sun comes up for nothing
At first light the songbirds stir
Only the sun comes up for nothing
Just along the glittering horizon
Only the sun comes up for nothing
To light the broken world
Only the sun - Only the sun, comes up for nothin

Pictures painted for an empty room
The future forms a darkened sky
Seeing distant pasts thru dustpan eyes
On eagle wings they must fly

The day ends just like it began
Now you're footsteps in the sand
Are just moments that flew away

But Only the sun comes up for nothing
Just along the glittering horizon
Only the sun comes up for nothing
At first light the songbirds stir
Only the sun comes up for nothing
Just along the glittering horizon
Only the sun comes up for nothing
To light the broken world
Only the sun, Only the sun comes up for nothin

The tears running down my face
Are the rusted souls thru time
Seeing distant pasts thru dustpan eyes
On eagle wings they must fly....

Only the sun comes up for nothing
Just along the glittering horizon
Only the sun comes up for nothing
At first light the songbirds stir
Only the sun comes up for nothing
Just along the glittering horizon
Only the sun comes up for nothing
To light the broken world
Only the sun, Only the sun comes up for nothin
