Everybody's Missing the Sun - The Gourds

Workin' inside all day Make no money, go out and play Get drunk and pick a fight Sin works best in the night Everybody's missing the sun Everybody's sleeping through the afternoon How can you have any fun When everybody's missing the sun Darkness feeds you, sin misleads you Buy yourself some fun Swallow your pride and sleep 'til sunset Everybody's missing the sun Oh, everybody's missing the sun Pretty girls loose in the night They bring you down, they feel alright I like to love in the sun Cause when they glow, you really know Out all night, she wants you longer How late can you run It's sad for me to see, oh Everybody missing the sun Oh, everybody's missing the sun

My heart is beating in a different way Been gone such a long time, I don't feel the same My heart is beating in a different way Been gone such a long time Will you miss me? (I, I, I, oh) When there's nothing to see? (I, I, I, oh) Tell me, how did this come to be? (I, I, I, oh) And now there's no hope for you and me My heart is beating in a different way Been gone such a long time, I don't feel the same My heart is beating in a different way Been gone such a long time Do you still believe? (I, I, I, oh) In you and me? (I, I, I, oh) Are we all we could be? (I, I, I, oh) Is it meant to be? My heart is beating in a different way Been gone such a long time, I don't feel the same My heart is beating in a different way Been gone such a long time My heart is beating in a different way Been gone such a long time

Sun, sun, sun, stay with me Don't go behind the clouds I know that you'll go down But while it's day, let your light hit me Cause if I lose you now I fear I could bow out And I don't know where I'm going to When I get there, i'll send for you And I'll know when i see it, but Be patient, I swear I'll come through So ride, ride, ride, ride your pony But please don't ride him far No, stay within the yard It played out just like you told me I'd scratch your pretty eyes I'll put out those little lights But your heart, I didn't break it, no It was taken from you years ago And the hole those older men pulled it through It's still aching Let's be patient, you'll pull through Pull through Pull through Pull through Won't you? And I've made I've made up for my mistakes Cause of the pain of what I'd caused Won't be shit next to what I've lost And I hated being fucking patient So you waited You waited You waited But I never ever came to So sun, sun, sun What are you doing? You went behind the clouds But all the rain came down My old house is in ruins If you would come out again And dry up all the rain Then I'd climb right up again Like that spider in that nursery rhyme And these tales, well they're not meant to But it's time that we make them Come true Come true Come true For me and you

You call it "bright" And I call it "simple" And somewhere in the middle, it's "truth" You see the hill And I see the castle Our front that was united is doomed, ooh, ooh You call this "brick-and-mortar" I call this "sacred skin" You see the figure skater and I fear the ice is thin And the light is all around us But when we spar, it's dim We're right here in the middle, missing the miracle You see the cloud And I see the lighting And somewhere in the middle is sun And you say, "It's greatness" And I say, "Bad timing" And when we leave the ring, no one's won, ooh I go for the jugular You knock 'til you get in You hold the loud and raucous, and I hear the dropping pin And you run all front and center I whisper paper-thin We're right here in the middle, missing the miracle, woah The winter gets long The rapids get white And what doesn't kill us turns to grey You call this "brick-and-mortar" I call this "sacred skin" You see the figure skater and I fear the ice is thin And the light is all around us But when we spar, it's dim We're right here in the middle, missing the miracle Missing the miracle (The light is all around us) Missing the miracle (The light is all around us) Missing the miracle

Do you still believe in you and me? Are we all we could be, is it meant to be? Do you still believe in you and me? Are we all we could be, is it meant to be? My heart is beating in a different way Been gone such a long time, I don't feel the same Do you still believe in you and me? Are we all we could be, is it meant to be? My heart is beating in a different way Been gone such a long time, I don't feel the same Are we all we could be...? Is it meant to be...? Is it meant to be...? Is it meant to be...? In you and me...?

Tried to walk together But the night was growing dark Thought you were beside me But I reached and you were gone Sometimes I hear you calling From some lost and distant shore I hear you crying softly For the way it was before Where are you now, are you lost? Will I find you again? Are you alone, are you afraid? Are you searching for me? Why did you go? I had to stay Now I'm reaching for you Will you wait, will you wait? Will I see you again? You took it with you when you left These scars are just a trace Now it wanders lost and wounded This heart that I misplaced Where are you now, are you lost? Will I find you again? Are you alone, are you afraid? Are you searching for me? Why did you go? I had to stay Now I'm reaching for you Will you wait, will you wait? Will I see you again?

One at a time, constants become surreal One at a time, heart attacks are concealed I can see that I lose the joys of life One at a time, suicides are revealed You will see that I lost another life But tonight I'll let you tear it up, if you don't wake me up But if you tear it, we can't repair it So please don't wake me 'till someone cares Now no one cares One at a time, I watched them all forget One at a time, I'm lost in little deaths It's the place that I, I forget my life Like tonight I'll let you tear it up, if you don't wake me up But if you tear it, we can't repair it So please don't wake me 'till someone cares Now no one cares Will the flood behind me put out the fire inside me? Will the flood behind me (will the flood) put out the fire inside me? I'll let you tear it up I'll let you break it up, if you don't wake me up But if you tear it, we can't repair it So please don't wake me 'till someone cares Now no one cares (cares) I'll let you tear it up, if you don't wake me up 'Cause it's apparent that you don't care and It's sunk into me, 'cause I don't care Now no one cares

I wonder if them ol' back roads the ones I put them memories on remember me, in this f150 I wonder if that home town heart the one I didn't mean to tear apart Still thinks of me I know that's crazy Maybe it's just something about Radio up and the windows down Got me missing all that way back Summer was a soundtrack Heaven was a sundown Friday night Got me missing all them way-out Stars that used stay out Sippin' on some homemade wasted time That population sign, my old spot in the drive That empty chair sittin' there in momma's kitchen Got me missing Does that water tower still know my name Even with that coat a paint the county put on it That town we used to own it When freedom was fast cars and hearts beatin' faster Time moved as slow as a tractor Got me missing all that way back Summer was a soundtrack Heaven was a sundown Friday night Got me missing all them way-out Stars that used stay out Sippin' on some home-made wasted time That population sign, my old spot in the drive That empty chair sittin' there in momma's kitchen Got me missing Maybe it's just something about Radio up and the windows down Got me missing On that wayback Summer was a soundtrack Heaven was a sundown Friday night Got me missing on them way-out Stars that used stay out Sippin' on some homemade wasted time That population sign, my old spot in the drive That empty chair sittin' there in momma's kitchen Got me missing
