Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight
Shade is dark
Cool and languid for life or love
Safe in shadows; never stark as the daylight
As the daylight
When I was just knee high,
My Momma told me, never try,
To be someone that I am not
Yet over time I had forgot,
The wandering child, so lost at play:
He's found himself but he can't find his way,
In the daylight
Oh, the daylight
Ooh, daylight
Ooh, daylight
Life is short, and there's no turning back the time
Fragrant meadows and lots to climb in the daylight
In my mind,
There's a corner I need to turn
Lesson lived is a lesson learned in the daylight
In the daylight
I miss the forest shade,
You took me there, the promise I made,
To never leave the dark so deep
Safe and soothing, yet I fear,
As I recall and now reflect,
I see it's safer to connect,
To the daylight
Oh, the daylight (Light)
Ooh, daylight
Ooh, daylight
Instrumental break
Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight
Of, the day
Fade
