[Verse 1]
Tina lies on the ground
She lies there forever
She likes the sun
Tina knows the devil

[Verse 2]
Tina loves the violence
Of living in the country
She likes that it's
So far from me

[Verse 3: The National & Sharon Van Etten]
Tina has her story down
I really thought I knew it
And it changed around
When I was almost through it

[Refrain]
Sunshine on my back is the only kind I like
Sunshine in my brain is the lonely kind of pain
It's the sunshine of a lonely mind

[Bridge: The National & Sharon Van Etten]
She says "After today then there's nothing you owe me"
And I'm so glad that you came, I needed someone who loves me
But just don't try to talk yourself into this love
And sleep like a baby while I'm staying up
It's as much what you say, as it is what you don't
You can't try to stay you either will or you won't
[Refrain]
Sunshine on my back is the only kind I like
Sunshine in my brain is the lonely kind of pain
It's the sunshine of a lonely mind
