Time For The Sun To Rise Lyrics - Behind The Levee - Subdudes

Last night as I lie sleeping 

I had dreams of a place untold 

You never see people weeping 

There's no wars and no greed for gold 

It's a place where love can unfold 

But by the time my dream is in stride 

It's time for that ol' sun to rise 

Oh sunrise on the horizon beneath the sky 

Oh sunrise you always catch me by surprise 

I'm always returning to reality 

Leaving that world of love and peace 

One thing I'm sure ain't no fantasy 

It's the place I'll always want to be 

And the girl I met must be for me (repeat A) 

Oh sunrise why must you come so soon 

Oh sunrise you don't soothe me like the moon 

Each night I go back to love-land 

A name I heard some fellow say 

I found me a loving hand 

But somehow I just can't stay 

'Cause each time she fade away 

But by the time, my dream is in stride 

It's time for that ol' sun to rise
