Sunshine Lyrics - Barenaked Ladies

Most of us 

Have learned to trust 

What we see with our own eyes 

But with blinders on you hardly realize 

That out of view 

It's still true 

Even when no one's around 

We can stumble and fall down 

Sunshine burns your skin 

Sometimes the things we love so much 

Just eat us up from the outside in 

Oceans blue will drown 

I could find a way to live with your ghost 

But I won't be happy till I leave this town

It's just as well 

It's hard to tell 

'Cause my hindsight's crystal clear 

But the view from then's not like the view from here 

If you are passed through a looking glass 

The important parts appear 

But the details start to smear 

Sunshine burns your skin 

Sometimes the things we love so much 

Just eat us up from the outside in 

Oceans blue will drown 

I could find a way to live with your ghost 

But I won't be happy till I leave this town 

When I leave this town 

I move the point of view I found 

The sun seems to go down 

But it just burns while we all spin around 

Photos 

I ran fast 

But I came last 

'Cause although I've set the pace 

It was rigged from the start that I'd lose this race 

Gone and done 

Before it had begun 

Seems the cup's half full till it's overflowed 

Then you run and run till your heart explodes 

Sunshine burns your skin 

Sometimes the things we love so much 

Just eat us up from the outside in 

Oceans blue will drown 

I could find a way to live with your ghost 

But I won't be happy till I leave this town (Sunshine) 

I won't be happy till I leave this town (Sunshine) 

Won't be happy till I leave this town
