Innocence Mission - I Never Knew You From the Sun lyrics

rate me

(For Mary McCullough)

What a time it was.

I was befriended and was a friend

for the longest while. You were here,

and I never knew you from the sun.

Snow is on the ground

but this is not my landscape now,

where I find myself without you.

Oh I never knew you from the sun.

Oh I had a friend. I had a friend I loved.

Now I walk for miles

into dark forests of piano songs. I'm lost.

Deep into my sleeves, deep in my sleeves,

pockets down where I always reach,

you are there.

Oh I never knew you from the sun,

never, never knew you from the sun.
