EmSunlight and the cB7ity     Bm7is barely Eawake 
As all the eAmarly morning dCmaj7rifters make their Emway 
EmHeadlights in the dB7istancBm7e  too bright for mEy eyes 
Still I love the dAmusk, the dawn, beCmaj7tween times 
They are mEmine E  
?Cos you can't tell iCf it's daDy or nGight 
Do we see thCe moon oDr the sunGlight? 
GEverything around is sCo tranDsitioEmnal 
MomentaCry lapse Dof raEmtional E  
EWalking past the Amwriting on the Emwall 
Something aAmpocalyptEmic 
Then a momentAmary lapse of Emfaith 
Before I beAmcome more optimiEmstic E  
Like a momenCtary lDoss of Gsight 
Fleetingly Cit went Dso wrong frGom right 
GIn a second it can chaCnge from nDight to dEmay 
GAny second lCove can tDurn to hGate 
Sunlight and the city is barely awake 
As all the seconds in our lifetime drift away 
So live every moment and hold me so tight 
A second changes day to night 
I had a momentary loss of sight 
Fleetingly it went so wrong from right 
In a second you would change your point of view 
In my hesitation I lost you 
It only takes a moment sometimes 
The difference between joy and pain 
In a second you can look away 
Turn around to find it's all changed 
Because you can't tell if it's day or night 
Do we see the moon or the sunlight? 
Everything around is so transitional 
Momentary loss of rational 
Like a momentary loss of sight 
Fleetingly it went from dark to light 
In a second it can change from night to day 
But in a moment hope will find the way

Any second love can turn to hate

Sunlight and the city is barely awake

As all the seconds in our lifetime drift away

So live every moment and hold me so tight

A second changes day to night

I had a momentary loss of sight

Fleetingly it went so wrong from right

In a second you would change your point of view

In my hesitation I lost you

It only takes a moment sometimes

The difference between joy and pain

In a second you can look away

Turn around to find it's all changed

Because you can't tell if it's day or night

Do we see the moon or the sunlight?

Everything around is so transitional

Momentary loss of rational

Like a momentary loss of sight

Fleetingly it went from dark to light

In a second it can change from night to day

But in a moment hope will find the way
