Lyrics How to See the Sun Rise - Ben Sollee

How to See the Sun Rise

Well, teach me, baby, oh lord, yes
A little show-and-tell
How to keep from loving you
Now should I fence in my heart baby
Lord, keep it in the shade
Give it all the fruit it could want except yours?
Teach me, baby, well, one more time
Just exactly how far you are away
Should I start walking now baby
Or wait another day?
You know I don’t need no map
Yes, I’ll find my way
Teach me, baby, oh, I promise I’ll get it this time
How to hold a bird in my hand and watch it grow
See those feathers bloom
But don’t let it fly
Even though that’s what it’s supposed to do
Teach me, baby, mmm, one last time
How to see the sun rise
In the dead of night
Lord, cause that’s how it feels, baby
But you don’t feel that way, do you?
