lyrics

Light me up baby like the rain
like an old cigarette stain
when it happens as the sun when it dampens
again

but the melody remains.
And the tan-lines on your face
and the wet that's on your cheek
oh you know I'd slip asleep
and wake up sunny if I could.

I want to smoke a lonely cigarette
through the crack that's in your window
and the looping in my thoughts
and the hole, the hole in the mirror

Because it tends to pour
when I'm up drinking thinking like a cloud
collecting too much wet
but I can hear music
even in a silent room
and I don't have to strain all that much.

I want to slip asleep and wake up sunny
but I don't think I could sleep even if I wanted to
I've gotten so used to blue
from the way my blankets used to wrap around you
twin-bed alone again
and cycling memories like a scrapbook
tossing in the reef.

Oh you know I'd slip asleep
and wake up sunny boy.
Sunny Boy.
