Words and music by Roddy Frame

Sand seperates the sea
From me on my desert island
Sun obliterates the sky
And I, I'm just like anyone
No matter how I try
I wanna see the sun.

And it shines
To luminate the distance
Illustrate the difference
Between you and me
And it collides with clouds
That set the sky free
Indicating right, indicating wrong
I'm just like anyone
I wanna see the sun.

Moon through many stages move
And light love
Like a silent L.D.
Swoon and every single kiss
You ever lit like this
Is gonna feel like bliss
So just reflect the sun
And guide everyone.

And it shines
To luminate the distance
Illustrate the difference
Between you and me
And it collides with clouds
That set the sky free
Indicating right, indicating wrong
So just reflect the sun
And guide everyone.

A cable car above the bay
Below the stars saying "are you okay?"
To the one you love.
It swings like a song
As it strings you along
You suspend your belief
There's no need, baby I've gone there
Stars shone there.

And they shine
To luminate the distance
Illustrate the difference
Between you and me
See them collide with clouds
That set the sky free
Indicating right, indicating wrong
And just like anyone
I wanna see the sun
I wanna see the moon
I wanna see the stars
I wanna see them shine.
