Daybreaks Lyrics by Jack Johnson

All the Light Above It Too

2017

[Verse 1]
Daybreaks, earthquakes, waves come without you
When I see you, in my dreams you
Never speak, never do you need to
Understanding under your wing
Under the impression you gave me
Did I take it, did it take me?
Further in this continuation
Become patient because there are some

[Chorus]
Some rules I cannot break
You showed me when you came
If the ghost is supposed to love
And why do I feel pain
'Cause nothing is for keeps
You just can't hold a cloud
The shape will always change
And one day come back down

[Verse 2]
Night falls on all of our decisions
All our plans and all ambitions
And this darkness comes to define us
Comes to take us and remind us
Find our way from this side of thinking
Unafraid and under your wing
Night falls on us either way

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause there are some

[Chorus]
Some rules I cannot break
You showed me when you came
The ghost is supposed to love
And why do I feel pain
'Cause nothing is for keeps
You just can't hold a cloud
The shape will always change
And one day come back down

[Bridge]
'Cause night falls on us, either way
Night falls on us, either way

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause there are some

[Chorus]
Some rules I cannot break
You told me when you came
The ghost is supposed to love
And why do I feel pain
'Cause nothing is for keeps
You just can't hold a cloud
The shape will always change
And one day come back down
