lyrics

Sun rise high,
might it rescue me
might it save now
and forgive me all I've done
drive me out of this space forever

Sun go down
leave me powerless and poor
I've my doubts that I'll
ever find that door
I'll be lost right here forever

Find the light to change
what's over, give them peace
and send me home forever
Find the light to make us one
and bring them peace
for all of them
the guardians of the alone
go with grace

Sun come up
bring me out of all these dreams
give me love,
bring me back
the clearest streams
let me leave that way forever

Sunlight spread
let them see all of my scars
drive me down
but we're never going far
and I'll be left right here
forever

Find the light to change
what's over, give them peace
and send me home forever
Find the light to make us one
and give them peace to all of us
the guardians of the alone,
go with grace.
