about

Written in the waning days of Fall during the pandemic

lyrics

You Call Yourself Sunshine

Refrain:
You call yourself sunshine, and maybe it’s true. Well
I don’t know how to love sunshine, but I could love you.

The trouble with sunshine;
It’s hard just to see,
And I don’t know how long I’ll be waiting
For you to love me.

The summer is waning,
A chill’s in the air;
I’ve had so much sunshine I tell you: I don’t even care.

I’ll take the cool mornings,
The long autumn a nights,
The stars and the moon in the heavens: my favorite sights.

R

I was born in the winter,
The sun far away.
The snow coming down and the cold are just
Parts of my day.

I walk towards springtime
When you are returning,
My fire in the moonlight, my heart
And I keep it burning

R
