How Come the Sun |
How come the sun didn’t make it today? |
Is it tired of what it’s been shining down on? |
Could it be God didn’t wake it today? |
You couldn’t blame Him |
Sometimes it feels like the sun just comes up out of habit |
And goes down as quick as it can |
These days you just have to grab it as it goes by |
How come the stars didn’t come out tonight? |
Are they tired of what they’ve been shining down on? |
Could it be God had a few doubts tonight? |
You couldn’t blame Him |
Sometimes it seems like the stars are just going through motions |
They don’t see the point of it all |
They shine, shine, but you get the notion they wonder why |
Maybe the sun saw everyone pulling his neighbour’s hair |
He couldn’t rise without the skies filling with filthy air |
Do you suppose that he knows |
That he knows, but he won’t tell us? |
How come the moon just won’t rise up and shine? |
Is it tired of what it’s been shining down on? |
Could it be God couldn’t make up His mind? |
You couldn’t blame Him |
Sometimes it feels like the moon’s heart just isn’t in it |
It gives less than all of its light |
It shines, shines, but just when it’s greatest it starts to die |
How come the sun didn’t make it today? |
Is it tired of what it’s been shining down on? |
Could it be God didn’t wake it today? |
You couldn’t blame Him |
Sometimes it feels like the sun just comes up out of habit |
And goes down as quick as it can |
These days you just have to grab it as it goes by |
