Ed Harcourt | Lyrics | Watching the Sun Come Up

You know it feels nice watching the sun come up
And I've realized I can never return
Oh babe, it feels good watching the sun come up
I can attack the day with the will to burn

And the sky is a picture of violence
Blood red and steely blue
It has beauty that could never be silenced
Oh yeah, it reminds me of you

And if you're broken down lying face on the ground, it's too late
For I've seen it all as the shadows fall when the dawn breaks
I could never be beyond repair, I could never be beyond repair
Watching the sun come up

And my hands, they are shaking
Whilst my feet they cannot turn
It's all making sense, I'm finally taking
Each day with the will to burn

And the sky is a picture of violence
Blood red and steely blue
It has beauty that could never be silenced
Oh yeah, it reminds me of you

And if you're broken down lying face on the ground, it's too late
For I've seen it all as the shadows fall when the dawn breaks
I could never be beyond repair, I could never be beyond repair
Watching the sun come up

It all could happen if I want it to
It all could happen if I want it to
It all could happen if I want it to
It all could happen if I want it to

It feels nice watching the sun come up
And I've realized I can never return
Babe it feels good watching the sun come up
I can attack the day with the will to burn, come on
