Daylight and the Sun Lyrics by Antony and the Johnsons

Turning

2009

Now I cry for daylight
Daylight and the sun
Now I cry for daylight
Daylight everyone

Daylight in my heart
Daylight in the trees
Daylight kisses everything
She can see

There was no light
Only the white night
First born when the sun
Screamed her eyes wide open

Daylight in the fields
Daylight mountains
Fire kisses the floor
Of the lakes and makes shadows

Now I cry for daylight
Daylight and the sun
Now I cry for daylight
Daylight everyone

Daylight in my heart
Daylight in the trees
Daylight kisses everything
She can see

Daylight in my heart
Daylight in the trees
Daylight kisses everything
She can see

Ooh, your dream
Here on the water
Warm the sand
The seagulls calling

Kissed by kindness
Kissed by kindness
Kissed by kindness
Kissed by kindness

Ooh, your dream
Here on the water
Warm the sand
The seagulls calling

Kissed by kindness
Kissed by kindness
Kissed by kindness
Kissed by kindness

You gave me this
Your fire becomes a kiss
You gave me this
Your fire becomes a kiss
