Sheryl Crow - Father Sun lyrics

rate me

Strange imaginations, children hide your secrets well

Is it not temptation, makes you kiss and makes you tell?

There's a traveler on the airwaves, and he's pleading for my heart

Light up all the candles, I'm still in the dark

Hurry operator, get redemption on the line

Pull back the curtains, I think I recognize those eyes

If love is so criminal, then my penance due

'Cause I'm still holding onto letters written straight to you

Oh, won't you save me, father sun, father sun

I need to tell you that my life is on the run

And now you know that you're the only one

Oh, please forgive me, father sun, father sun

I swore I needed you in the back of my mind

Laid the beads upon the table, right beside the wine

It seems that we say forever, but forever's just a word

"And I will be coming back for you" is all I heard

Oh, won't you save me, father sun, father sun

I need to tell you that my life is on the run

And now you know that you're the only one

Oh, please forgive me, father sun, father sun

Please don't forget me, father sun, father sun

I think I hear him whispering

"Put your hand in my hand and you won't feel a thing"

Oh, won't you save me, father sun, father sun

I need to tell you that my life is on the run

And now you know that you're the only one

Oh, please forgive me, father sun, father sun

Oh won't you save me, father sun, father sun

I need to tell you that my life is on the run

And now you know that you're the only one

Oh won't you save me, father sun, father sun

Oh won't you save me, father sun, father sun

Oh won't you save me, save me, save me, save me, save me, father sun
