show me the sun
Singer: belle & sebastian
what do you
want of me?
what do you
want of me?
i am hiding in the city
dressed in red
walking in the dead of night looking for an answer
i have said
i believe
though my greatest friend
the gift of song is here
the gift is not enough tonight
i fear i breathe
slowly slowly what do i believe?
is it strong enough?
let me love
show me the sun
'cause my mind is moving at the speed of light
i know you place the jewel of love
your heart
in the middle of us all to fight it out
and we do it
we're waking up to that belief
and you will be saved
wicked you
wicked me
we are lost amongst the dreaming fields of pain
praying on our ever-bended knees
that you'd dip your cooling finger in the well
and you touch us
i wanna be with lazarus
i'm on the side of the weak
what i choose to do with my time
is a gift
i threw in your face
a hangover of youth
but the plain bloody truth
you suffer a while before ladders of gold set you free
so i come
broke the seal
broke the faith of every deal i ever made
did the obvious
the weakest thing i could
and your mother and your beauty run to you
let me foster my intentions to be wise
and to love you
