in the sun Lyrics by Chris Wright

CANDID

2022

Where are you going, baby
It’s warm in the sunlight mmm hmm
Oh baby, where are you going
It’s warm in the sunlight

Got my back turned to you
But my face in the sun
I was waiting for you here
I didn’t think you’d come
It’s a life so simple
But it ain’t a life for one
I was hoping for better days
They came all at once, all I want

Is a little house on the coast
With a yard for the dogs
Something kinda small
Something we can really grow up in
Make a lot of marks in the walls
All I want
Is a little fire in the back yard
When the sun down
Something kinda small
Something we can stay warm by
When the summer winds fade into fall
All I want
Is the light of your presence
Is my favorite you present
Smiling up when I’m down
Always teaching me lessons
Picture perfect no makeup
Kinda rude when you wake up
Always down to just stay up
Ain’t no plan, we just hanging out

Got my back turned to you
But my face in the sun
I was waiting for you here
I didn’t think you’d come
It’s a life so simple
But it ain’t a life for one
I was hoping for better days
They came all at once, all I want

Back porch sometimes
The wind in my hair
The sun on your face
I try not to stare
This ain’t everyday
But I’ll take it all
This life made of clay
I’ll shape it to you
I’ll break all the rules
I can live forever
I’ll shake the blues
Life can’t get better
Too much to lose
White tees and sweaters
Sunlight diffused
Through the clouds on a hard day
I take the 361 to the wrong place
I know that I get turned around
But I hope that you know this songs about you
And I’ll try to change
Money just an object
I can’t give you much
But I hope that it’s enough
I know I ain’t the same
I just hope it’s progress
You calling my name
I’ll be running till the sun sets up

Got my back turned to you
But my face in the sun
I was waiting for you here
I didn’t think you’d come
It’s a life so simple
But it ain’t a life for one
I was hoping for better days
They came all at once, all I want

This time I decided I won't be alone
For the first time, for the first, in a long time
