Lyrics

I Saw the Sun

[Chorus]

Hey

I saw the Sun

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey

I saw the Sun

Hey

I saw the Sun

Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse]

Under the moon now

Can tell by the light

Don't stare at the moon now

Makes me so sad

You were always sitting with wings

I feel all alone

And there's tears in your eyes

They make me feel much better

A journey through the woods on a path

I belong here

And there's tears in your eyes

They make me feel much better

[Chorus]

Hey

I saw the Sun

Hey

I saw the Sun

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey

I saw the Sun

Hey

I saw the Sun

Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Outro]

Hey, I saw—
