Hozier – Sunlight lyrics

[Verse 1]
I would shun the light, sharin' evenings cool and quiet
Who betrayed that I’m the night
For sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
But his heart would not take flight
Betray the moon as acolyte
I'm first and fierce if I'm in sight
Of sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

[Chorus]
I have been lost in sunlight
Flew like a moth to you, sunlight, oh, sunlight
All we love is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
But it is sunlight

[Verse 2]
All the titles the same
Told before and told again
Soul that’s born in cold and rain
Oh, sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
At last, came burgeoning
To bury it in a burning flame
It's love and it's decisive pain
Oh, my sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

[Chorus]
All that was shown to me, sunlight
There's somethin' foreknown to me, sunlight, oh sunlight
All we love is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
But it is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
But it is sunlight, sunlight

[Bridge]
Oh, and these colors fade for you
Hold me, carry me slowly, my sunlight
Oh, and these colors fade for you
Hold me, carry me slowly, my sunlight

[Verse 3]
Each day, you rise with me
Know that I would gladly be
The eucharist to your certainty
Oh, my sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
You strap the weight of me
A death trap clad happily
With wax melted, I need to see
Under sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

[Chorus]
All we love is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
But it is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
But it is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
But it is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
All we love is sunlight
But it is sunlight

[Outro]
Sunlight, sunlight, sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
