Richard Hawley & Sophie Solomon:
"Burnt by the sun"
I was burnt by the sun said good bye to the sea
when I saw you were losing your love for me
Your eyes told the tale of a wound that's still raw
as I watched you renouncing any hope of a cure
How can I be bitter that it's over
after all I've got myself to blame
the sun dissolves to winter now it's over
I'm lost amongst the shadows that remain
Then your words rang out strong at once broken but clear
and I heard you dismissing any last trace of fear
I was burnt by the sun tried in vain not to cry
since I knew all the answers tell me why I ask why
How can I be bitter that it's over
after all I've got myself to blame
the sun dissolves to winter now it's over
I'm lost amongst the shadows that remain
Now the swing in your step makes me tremble with hurt
when I see how you blossom I feel lost and inert
I've been burnt by the sun in my Prozac cocoon
just can't pick up the pieces of my life without you
just can't pick up the pieces of my life without you
