equinox (sunny days) Lyrics

You make a fool out of me

Falling with all of the leaves

Wise men read books and stuff

But wise men are sad

And you make me wanna be happy

Poets cry themselves to sleep

Scared to hear their own heartbeat

So they build their own prisons

Lock them tight

Block out the light

And you make me wanna be free

There used to be anvils

Weighing on my chest

And it got hard to handle

Yes I must confess

But you're bright like a candle

And the prettiest

You are sweet but substantial

You're lovelier than a Van Gogh

Your life's a line out of Thoreau

So i'm not worried about the future

My life and my death

I just know I like you

And I'll deal with the rest

Down the road

But I guess I just thought you should know

You make my heart beat out my chest

You make me blush and want to stay

I used to sleep until sunset

But you make me love these sunny days

Atlas, he holds up the sky

But knows his load is less than mine

So he cries and he tries

To make it lighter for me

By bringing you into my life

Icarus, he and the sun

Had unreciprocated love

The sky is too high, I've found

I'm happy on earth

And you bring me sunshine enough

I wanna slow dance

With you all night long

With nobody watching

Right there on the quad

And only stars above us

And the lights all shut off

Holding you there in my arms

Home has never been less far

So go back to sleep, Siggy

You got it all wrong

We're smiling like kids

Stargazing on the lawn

It's the end of the summer

The start of the fall

It's a symphony, simple and strong

I swear I hear it sing this song

You make my heart beat out my chest

You make me blush and want to stay

I used to sleep until sunset

But you make me love these sunny days

You make my heart beat out my chest

You make me blush and want to stay

I used to sleep until sunset

But you make me love these sunny days
