Lyrics
Staring At The Sun
Music and lyrics By Tom Rudd

Will you lead me into the rain
To put out the fire
Will you drag my heart through the flames
Of you’re true desire
When I look right into you’re eyes
Do I see right through
Is you’re love a clever disguise
Tangled up in blue

Chorus
I never thought that when all was said and done
Ahhh lovin you is like
Staring at the sun

Like a grain of sand in a Pearl
That gets locked away
She’s a flower waiting for spring
Just to have her day
It’s the Yin and Yang of the Girl
That she tries to hide
That will leave you wanting for more
Once you get inside

Why are the moon and stars
Always there for every one
And lovin you is like
Staring at the sun

Is the pleasure worth all the pain
Can we live and learn
Is it all just part of the game
If we crash and burn
There’s a secret story inside
All the words you say
That will lead me into the light
I can’t turn away

Why are the moon and stars
Always there for every one
And lovin you is like
Staring at the sun
