Lyrics:

Welcome to Monday morning, it's raining outside but I'm walking right passed a family mourning, the black suits do all the talking.
Pathetic fallacy is callously challenging me as a funeral car pulls up on the high street
Where was the Sun when we cried out?
As streams run by the curb, tears roll down to their feet
Colliding tides rise engulfing the high street
Where was the Sun when we cried out?
Where was the Sun when we cried out?

Welcome to Winter's embers, it's April but clouds say December. We've got no home to enter, thank goodness our friend's have a sofa.
Do all you can to plan but something's are out of your hands
The dissonant weeping of a desperate man
Where was the Sun where we cried out?
I'm sitting on a curb, staring over the street
The cloudy ceiling ain't revealing any hope for me
Where was the Sun when we cried out?
Where was the Sun when we cried out?

What is love if not enduring?
She stood by me so I'll stand by You
In a hallway screaming, swearing
You left us battered, torn and bruised
What was that fortnight all about?
Birthdays in someone else's house
Rain washed our anniversary out
Where was the Sun when we cried out?

We get to mid September, the storm finally lost it's temper.
The troubles we had are over, you're welcome to stay on our sofa.
I can't explain it all that's why it's unexplainable
The storm was rough but the wind and gusts have shaped us all
There was the Sun when we cried out
I was in the shadows, looking up at the towering tree
But rays of light were crawling through the branches til they get to me.
There was the Sun when we cried out
There was the Sun when we cried out

What is love if not enduring?
