Staring At the Sun (Mike Hedges Mix)
guitar chords lyrics
Summer stretching on the grass
Summer dresses pass
In the shade of a willow tree
Creeps a crawling over me
Over me and over you
Stuck together with God's glue
It's gonna get stickier too
It's been a long hot summer, let's get under cover
Don't try too hard to think, don't think at all
I'm not the only one, starin' at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find, if you took a look inside
I'm not just deaf and dumb, starin' at the sun
Not the only one, who's happy to go blind
There's an insect in your ear
If you scratch it won't disappear
Not the only one, who's happy to go blind
There's an insect in your ear
If you scratch it won't disappear
It's going to itch and burn and sting
You wanna see what the scratchin' brings
Waves that leave me out of reach
Breakin' on your back like a beach
Will we ever live in peace?
'Cause those that can't do, often have to
And those that can't do, often have to preach
To the ones, starin' at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find, if you took a look inside
I'm not just deaf and dumb, starin' at the sun
Not the only one, who'd rather go blind
Intransigence is all around
Military still in town
Armour plated suits and ties
Daddy just won't say goodbye
Referee won't blow the whistle
God is good, but will he listen?
I'm nearly great, but there's something missing
I left it in the duty free, oh
But you never really belonged to me
You're not the only one, starin' at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find, if you stepped back inside
I'm suckin' on my thumb, starin' at the sun
I'm not the only one, who's happy to go blind
I'm not the only one
