Lyrics Sun Comes Up - Will Butler vs The Knocks, The Knocks, Will Butler

Sun Comes Up

Remember what you said to me?
I wrote it on the wall
Something about heaven
Something about the fall
Half way through I needed paint
I headed for the door
I think I saw you light the match
The papers spilled on the floor
Spilled out on the floor, spilled out on the floor
I don’t remember being warm
I don’t remember the light
I don’t remember the closing door
Or walking into the night
Out into the night, out into the night
Out into the night, out into the night
A hummingbird came up to me
He stopped to scratch his wing
I said you better hurry up
Or better learn to sing
Instead he fell down to the ground
I had to close my eyes
I only opened them yesterday
I don’t think it was wise
I didn’t miss the maple tree
The way it plays int he light
I didn’t miss the city streets
The surface burning so bright
It’s burning too bright, it’s burning too bright
It’s burning too bright, it’s burning too bright
Oh it’s one for the Devil, it’s two for the Devil
It’s three for his friends, it’s four for the trouble
It’s five for the taking, six for the taking
It’s seven for the taking, it’s seven for the taking
You say that there must be someway out of here
I said you sure joke
You laugh at our confusion
I wish I hadn’t spoke
I wish I hadn’t whispered
I wish I hadn’t moaned
I wish you wouldn’t sing this song
Not while we’re alone, not while we’re alone
Not while we’re alone, not while we’re alone
Not while we’re alone, not while we’re alone
Oh when the sun comes up, he’s gonna laugh
Oh when the sun comes up, he’s gonna laugh
Oh when the sun comes up, he’s gonna laugh
Oh when the sun comes…
Oh when the sun comes up
Oh when the sun comes up
Oh when the sun comes up
