Don't Stare at the Sun (song lyrics)

by Yazdan   Jun 19, 2009


Don't stare at the sun, it'll hurt your eyes
Don't stare at the sun, it'll tell you lies
Don't stare at the sun, cause if you do
It'll hide and never rise

I knew a man and we were friends from the beginning
He found a girl and wanted to settle down
I saw his girl and shivers went up my spine
I had a real bad feeling

I said to him be careful
Don't stare at the sun

Don't stare at the sun, it'll hurt your eyes
Don't stare at the sun, it'll tell you lies
Don't stare at the sun, cause if you do
It'll hide and never rise

I knew this girl by reputation
She was a breaker of hearts
She took many friends from me
As they befriended the bottle

He said she was different than the rest
the sole sun in his lonely eyes
He said she rose with the sun
and set by his side

Don't stare at the sun, it'll hurt your eyes
Don't stare at the sun, it'll tell you lies
Don't stare at the sun, cause if you do
It'll hide and never rise

A week later he knocked on my door
With a bottle in his hand
My sun set and didn't rise again
And my eyes are burning

Don't stare at the sun, it'll hurt your eyes
Don't stare at the sun, it'll tell you lies
Don't stare at the sun, cause if you do
It'll hide and never rise

It'll hide and never rise

    Hey,

    You have no idea how happy I am that your writing again. Greatness I say Yazimoto :P So as for the song I liked it and I too would love to hear it along with whatever style of music you have it set to. Bravo you always have a way of setting a mood.

    Ciao,

    Hey, Skittle! Been ages since we've spoken, but I seen you had a couple new poems posted, and decided to check them out. (:

    I quite like the idea of this as a song -- the sun metaphor (as I took it), was great. Simply as a poem, it feels a little weak to me. But set it to a melody, I feel like it'd be quite catchy and nice. Have you written music to it? I'd love to hear if you have. (:

    Not sure why, but in my mind I've put it to an acousticy/maybe a tad folky tune. :P Haha.

    Anyhow! I loook forward to your future poems, dear Skittle.

    Love always,
    Mallow!
