See the Sun

This song talks about my experiences with parenting and the fears that go along with that. It makes my son cry to hear the lyrics, and while I'm glad it evokes emotion, I'm sad that it affects him so. Interestingly enough, this song has my most commonly mistaken lyrics. I'll let you figure out which ones.

Intro

Instrumental, verse part

Verse 1

Looking through the window pane

Wondering when I'll see the light again

Now's the time that I have got to find

But I don't want to be left behind

Chorus

'Cause I need to be the one to see the sun

And I can't take it when it goes away.

And I need to feel the warmth on my face

'Cause without you my light fades

Well my light fades away.

Verse 2

The years go by and you're changing more each day

And I can't feel all the things I want to say

I look into your dark brown eyes

And I don't want to be left behind

Chorus

Verse 2

Time goes by so fast I can't believe

I never thought I'd see the day you leave

But now you're grown and living on your own

And I don't want to be left behind (alone)
