The Sun Keeps Shining Down on You Lyrics by McCully/Mackay

Garden of the Snake

0

Well you're trapped in a desert and there's nothing around
It's a place of your own making
Shutting thoughts down till you hear no sound
Just the sand the wind is shaking
As you move ahead, as you know you must
The sun shines down, baking you brown
And the tears have dried as emotions died
But you carry on regardless
Too late to say you're sorry
Too late to shoot them down
As they fly away to the burning sky
The sun keeps shining down on you
So you go to the well, but the well is dry
Gotta think of something clever
And the years go by and the desert's still dry
And hope is gone forever
Too late to say you're sorry
Too late to shoot them down
As they fly away to the burning sky
The sun keeps shining down on you
The hills of sand in an endless land
Can't see the horizon
Like the planet Mars without the stars
It seems as though you're frozen
So you go to the well, but the well is dry
Gotta think of something clever
And the years go by and the desert's still dry
And hope is gone forever
Too late to say you're sorry
Too late to shoot them down
As they fly away to the burning sky
The sun keeps shining down on you
The sun keeps shining down on you
The sun keeps shining down on you
In a fever dream you change the scene
Like an actor in a movie
Blows his lines in the changing times
Left right out of history
Can you make the change to the mountain rain
Made of all your worries
Can you break the chain, hear the crowd's refrain
And sing your way to glory
Too late to say you're sorry
Too late to shoot them down
As they fly away to the burning sky
The sun keeps shining down on you
The sun keeps shining down on you
The sun keeps shining down on you
The sun keeps shining down on you
