Even in the quietest moments
I wish I knew
What I had to do
And even though the sun is shining
Well I feel the rain -- here it comes again, dear

And even when you showed me
My heart was out of tune
For there's a shadow of doubt
That's not letting me find you too soon

The music that you gave me
The language of my soul
Oh Lord, I want to be with you
Won't you let me come in from the cold?

Don't you let the sun fade away
Don't you let the sun fade away
Don't you let the sun be leaving
Won't you come to me soon?

And even though the stars are listening
And the ocean's deep
I just go to sleep
And then I create a silent movie
You become the star
Is that what you are, dear?
Your whisper tells a secret
Your laughter brings me joy
And a wonder of feeling
I'm nature's own little boy

But still the tears keep falling
They're raining from the sky
Well there's a lot of me got
To go under before I get high

Don't you let the sun disappear
Don't you let the sun disappear
Don't you let the sun be leaving
No, you can't be leaving my life

Say that you won't be leaving my life
Say that you won't be leaving my life
Say won't you please, stay won't you please
Say won't you please, stay won't you please

Lord, won't you come and get into my life
Lord, won't you come and get into my life
Say won't you please, stay won't you please
Stay won't you please, say won't you please
Oh Lord, don't go
Won't you come to me?

And even when the song is over
Where have I been -- was it just a dream?
And though your door is always open
Where do I begin -- may I please come in, dear?
