The morning sun peaks through my window
Ooze flows like honey from the willow
My goodbyes are muted through the pillow
The cool of the night begins to fade
An incandescent light marks the new dawn
Dreams of you are slipping away
Promises are much easier to say
Than they are to make
Rise and shine
For light waits for no one
And when we run out of time
It's gonna be the dark all the time
The beauty of life is such
So is there any point in crying over spilled blood?
Pourin' pride in through my veins
I decide I must rise again
Take my face in your hands and you say"Can you put on a happy face?"
I grab your face and say"All great shows must have an interlude"
So rise and shine
For light waits for no one
And when we run out of time
It's gonna be the dark all the time
