Sun Has A Tired Face

It can feel like forever.
When it has only begun
the songs we remember
have all been sung
It can feel like forever.

Once it was a second
that added up quick
to be 60 minutes
full of tricks
Once it was a minute.

Not gonna love when I know what I have given up.
Slipping into a reminiscent yet ugly slump.
Thinking of all the times with love, my luck ran up.
Always sworn to myself,
Not gonna love when I know what I have given up.

I have died this times
Ten times over.

I am giving myself up
‘cause who I love is worth giving up my fear.
I have identified myself with for many years
cause last time I loved I was hurt to tears
I am giving myself up
‘cause who I love is worth giving up my fear.

Maybe this time I have gone blind
Maybe this time
You will try
to just go blind with me.

We will see the night
We will see the sun show its tired face
‘Cause our love is right
even with it’s mistakes.
