Lyrics Laura Veirs – Sun Song

First rays of light are coming through
Been several months since I saw that much blue
Water a-rushing in the banks
Freed from the ice

It has the sun, the sun to thank
It has the sun, the sun to thank

Matches inside your golden hair
Catch all the light I’d fight to the death, I swear
As all the other mothers would, the land
Stalked by winter, solace in a small warm hand

We’ve got the sun, the sun to thank
We’ve got the sun, the sun to thank

Early morning riser to the east
Shadows fall behind me, shiner never sleep
‘Til that day I’ll bask in everything
That you paint, the arrows and the wheat

We’ve got the sun, the sun to thank
We’ve got the sun, the sun to thank
We’ve got the sun, the sun to thank
We’ve got the sun, the sun to thank
