lyrics

I tried everything I tried heroin cocaine
But the sun came down the sun came down the same
I dreamed clouds and trains beautiful castles in the rain
But the sun came out and dried it all away

And if you look in every place hope you find somewhere safe to stay
Where the sun can't come and steal your joy away
I tried water I tried wine I tried to run a million miles
There's nowhere the sun don't come and shine

I tried to find another life tried to tell a million lies
But the sun just shook his head and said goodbye
And when all the clouds had cleared and the moon had disappeared
The sun came up and everybody cheered

Well if you reach the other side and you kiss the sunny skies
I hope a rainbow comes and wraps you in the night
I tried water I tried wine I tried to run a million miles
There's nowhere the sun don't come and shine

supported by 5 fans who also own “Shine”

For me this is a wonderful break up album. It’s not all sullen because these things in life are always emotionally mixed and the album reflects the mood swings all done without clobbering you over the head or overly forcing the subjects to fit specific places in the listeners consciousness Tommy Dog
