lay there for an hour or two
Looking at the whole wide world,
wondering about a spaceman
if you were here I would have made two
so I could blend in with the sky
Now the coast is on fire and
Got a shack out by the water,
And when the moon climbs,
I listen for the fights in the alley
And get on my way, get on my way
Cause the sun don't shine
It's hard to keep right here
Cause the sun won't shine
It's hard to keep right here
Paddling out into the rising tide
You were my whole wide world
And I was just an spaceman
And I would like to be there too
Hoping I could be your sky
And we're drinking in the day
Got a shack out by the water
And when the moon climbs,
we listen for the fights in the alley
Cause the sun don't shine
It's hard to keep writing
Cause the sun don't shine
Cause the sun don't shine
It's hard to keep right here
Cause the sun don't shine
It's hard to keep right here
