Lyrics The Sun Also Rises - Ray Wylie Hubbard

The Sun Also Rises

An old preacher holds on to a Bible
A small child sings «The Water’s Wide»
I stand like stone all alone outside their circle
A faithless man, a fast left hand, and a hole inside
Her golden hair shined like sunlight on Sunday morning
A band of gold was never put on her left hand
They tell me that a band of angels
Is waiting to receive her in a distant land
It’s a cold dark rain that keeps on fallin'
On the just as well as the unjust
Yet the sun, you see, it also rises
If it don’t, blame it on a lack of trust
Now the preacher tells me of a promise
Of a heaven, an everlasting love
But his words to me now are of little comfort
As I see her lying there, just the sky above
It’s a cold dark rain that keeps on fallin'
On the just as well as the unjust
Yet the sun, you see, it also rises
If it don’t, blame it on a lack of trust
If it don’t, blame it on a lack of trust
