sun please
Gregory Ramos 1961 (Azusa)
so your dark deep in need
for the light you see takes
you to your knees
sun please
don't shine your light today
can we call it night
for evermore
for your morning hues
can't be good news
giving your people hope
or your light shine after
the morning shower
sends your rainbow risen
all i want is the darkness of
my soul sun please
no more high noon days where your
children play in the warmth
of your hand
or give life to the fertile land
i want all of this band
night shall reign
for evermore
my demands are clear
no more negotiations
i want i want i want
sun please keep me around
even your moon gives me sound
of your light
son please
