(yes y'all and ya don't stop keep on to the break of dawn)

Yo...put one up to shackle me, not clean logic procreation
I did not invent the wheel I was the crooked spoke adjacent
While the triple sixers lassos keep angels roped in the basement
I walk the block with a halo and a stick poking your patience
Ya'll catch a 30 second flash visual
Dirty cooperative net platoon bloom head trip split rediculous
Fathom the splicing of first generation
Fuck up or trickle down anti hero smack (Cracking!)
I paste the game to zero hour completion green (Splash!)
Duke of early retirement pick a dream
American nightmare hogging the screen
I'll hold the door open so you can stumble in
if you'd stop following me around the jungle gym
Now it's an honor and I spell it with the 'H' I stole from heritage
Merit crutch stolen wretched refuse of my teeming resonance
I promise temperance towards breed with a leaning conscience
Here the creed acts since responsive but my sports the war's the wattage
And I'm sleeping now (Wow!) yeah the settlers laugh
You won't be laughing when your covered wagons crash
You won't be laughing when the buzzards drag your brother's flags into rags
You won't be laughing when your front lawn is spangled with epitaphs
You won't be laughing
And I hang my boots to rest when I'm impressed
So I triple knot them and forgot them
This origami dream is beautiful
but man those wings will never leave the ground
Without a feather and a lottery ticket, now settle down

All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.

(yes, yes, y'all, you don't stop, keep on to the break of dawn)

Slacker bound emit a tabloid headline with a pulse
Shimmy cross the centerfold, and a dead time engulfed
Diddy crumbs for the better souls with seven deadly stains
To hear the blame to crystal conscience
To results a low life counting on one hand what he's accomplished
Ok, link me to activism chain activate street sweep
Plug deteriorating zenith bent Pendragon
I hock swords cores for the morbid spreading of mad men
(alley gospel)
Sinking their lincoln-log cabin and Charlie Chaplin waddle
I could zig zag and zig 'em again for the bashed dreams
Sparking in my brick wall windows another thick installment
Of one night in Gotham without the wretched
Houston we have a problem
Attached to a infested batch of city goblins
Who split holiday freak on a box cut cinema high road bellow
Head rips Watch red bricks turn yellow
Sort of similar to most backbones at camp Icarus
Raw feeling crimes congregating at pamper for bickering
Life's not a bitch life is a beautiful woman
Your only call her a bitch because she won't let you get that pussy
Maybe she didn't feel y'all shared any similar interests
Or maybe you're just an asshole who couldn't sweet talk the princess
Kiss the speaker wire or either pass it for some pagan thresh hold
Stomach full of halo kibbles
Wings span cast black of porn visuals hear the duck hunt ticker tape
Vision and pick apart the pixels
I got a friend of polar nature and it's all peace
When I seek similar stars but can't sit at the same feast
Metal Captain!
This cat is asking if I've seen his little lost passion
I told him: Yeah, but only when I pedaled past him

All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way

Breakout!
out!

A brilliant lie
Severed patience
Spectred isle
Whispers haunting, drown me now
Don’t roll over
Play dead for a while

Pierce the vein
Lipstick wrapped in cellophane
Fire in the photographs
Narcolepsy
Sell me out again

Daylight shines on me
Burning up the enemy
Just you wait and see
How much can you bleed?

Wake me up
Compensate this bloody tongue
Travesty from underground
Don’t roll over alone or loaded gun

A brilliant lie
Severed patience
Spectred isle
Whispers haunting, drown me now
Narcolepsy
Sell me out again

Daylight shines on me
Burning up the enemy
Just you wait and see
How much can you bleed?
Daylight burnt my eyes
Searing the despised
I’ll pray along everything is fine
Swallowing the lie

Do we have contact?
Don’t you take my...
Do we have contact?
Don’t you take my...
Do we have contact?
Don’t you take my...
Do we have contact?
Don’t you take my...

Daylight...

Daylight...
(Burning up the enemy)
Daylight...
(Burning up the enemy)
Daylight...
(Burning up the enemy)
Daylight...
(Burning up the enemy)

Daylight shines on me
Burning up the enemy
Just you wait and see
How much can you bleed?
Daylight burnt my eyes
Searing the despised
I’ll play along everything is fine
Swallowing the lie

we cut the legs off of our pants
threw our shoes into the ocean
sit back and wave through the daylight
sit back and wave through the daylight

slip and slide on subway grates
these shoes are poor mans ice skates
fall through like change in the daylight
fall through like change in the daylight

i miss yellow lines in my roads
some color on monochrome
maybe i’ll paint them in myself
maybe i’ll paint them in myself

these sidewalks liquid then stone
building walls and an old pay phone
it rings like all through the daylight
it rings like all through the daylight

chorus
and in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
i hope that someday i’ll see without these frames
and in the daylight i don’t pick up my phone
cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home

I have five clocks in my life
and only one has the time right
i’ll just unplug it for today
ill just unplug it for today

open hydrant rolled down windows
this car might make a good old boat
and float down grand street in daylight
and float down grand street in daylight

and with just half of a sunburn
new yellow lines that i earned
step back and here comes the night time
step back and here comes the night time

chorus
and in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
i hope that someday i’ll see without these frames
and in the daylight i don’t pick up my phone
cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home

Yeah,
You know what it is,
It's your man Travis.
Gym Class Heroes.
Kelly Rowland.
Oh so beautiful.
Baby girl, stay up all night.
Now tell 'em, show 'em how we do.
Here we go! Oh!

Verse 1: Kelly Rowland

It's five o'clock AM,
And the party is still going strong.
There's a conversation in the corner,
Tell a friend, bring everyone.
(C'mon, let's go)
Cos the FM music is groovin',
Folks getting down, getting down in their stocking feet.
Sleepy eyes are peeping,
(They're watching baby)
From the window across the street.

Chorus:

And it looks like daylight's gonna get me up again.
(Damn right and I'm lovin' every minute)
Most people like getting up when I'm just getting in.
(I'll be back in three days like Paris's jail sentence)
And oh, it's the only only time,
It's the only time when I can unwind.

Verse 2: Kelly Rowland

I swore to myself time and time and time again,
That I would give up the night-life,
(Yeah right)

Start laying in.
But it ain't easy, no no,
(No no no)
Saying no to my friends.
(That's right)
Cos the real, cos the real set don't get started,
Til everyone else is in.

Chorus:

And it looks like daylight's gonna get me up again.
(Damn right and I'm lovin' every minute)
Most people like getting up when I'm just getting in.
(I'll be back in three days like Paris's jail sentence)
And oh, it's the only only time,
It's the only time when I can unwind.

Rap: Gym Class Heroes

Hello world, good morning sunshine,
Great to see you again,
Homie, I'm doin' fine
Chasin' day dreams, you know still pursuing mine,
Sleep is so foreign, TV is so boring,
New York is New York,
Travie is still aight,
The freaks come out at night like a vampire.
Nocturnal lurking ..(?)..
The daylight creeps up ..(?)..

Chorus: Kelly Rowland

And it looks like daylight's gonna get me up again.
(Damn right and I'm lovin' every minute)
Most people like getting up when I'm just getting in.
(I'll be back in three days like Paris's jail sentence)
Daylight's gonna get me up again.
(Damn right and I'm lovin' every minute)
Most people like getting up when I'm just getting in

Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade.
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight.
Shade is dark.
Cool and languid for life or love.
Safe in shadows; never stark as the daylight.
As the daylight.

When I was just knee high,
My Momma told me, never try,
To be someone that I am not.
Yet over time I had forgot,
The wandering child, so lost at play:
He's found himself but he can't find his way,
In the daylight.
Oh, the daylight.

Ooh, daylight.
Ooh, daylight.

Life is short, and there's no turning back the time.
Fragrant meadows and rocks to climb in the daylight.
In my mind,
There's a corner I need to turn.
Lessons lived is a lesson learned in the daylight.
In the daylight.

I miss the forest shade,
You took me there, the promise I made,
To never leave the dark so deep.
Safe and soothing, yet I fear,
As I recall and now reflect,
I see it's safer to connect,
To the daylight.
Oh, the daylight. (Light.)

Ooh, daylight.
Ooh, daylight.

Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade.
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight.
Of the day...

To my suprise,
my daylight,
I saw sunrise,
I saw sunlight.

I am nothing,
in the dark,
and the clouds burst,
to show daylight.

oooo, and the sun shines,
yeah on this sunrise.
oooo, and I realise
who could live without,
who could part without, it.

On a hill top,
on a skyrise,
like a first born, child,
on the full day,
on the full flight,
if the darkness,
make the daylight.

oooo, and the sun shines,
yeah on this sunrise.
oooo, when I realise,
who could i live without,
who could i part without, daylight.

Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking through the daylight,
Slowly breaking...

Luz De Día

Para mi sorpresa y mi placer vi el amanecer Vi la
luz del día En la oscuridad yo no soy
nadie Y las nubes se revientan Para mostrar la
luz del día

Oh y el sol brillara si, En mi corazon oh me he
dado cuenta Quien no puede vivir sin esto oh, se
[Más Letras en http://es.mp3lyrics.org/Edf]
alejan

Oh, en la colina sobre el cielo Como un nido
Recien nacido a gran velocidad, Lo mas rapido
posible vence la oscuridad, Para ver el amanecer

Oh, el sol brillara si en mi corazon Oh, me he
dado cuenta quien no puede vivir sin esto se
alejan sin la luz del día

Lentamente viendo atravez De la luz del
día (*10)

I can see the daylight
And I feel it's right
That she's flowing now
She's flowing 'til it's through
A never-ending darkness
A never-ending night
Now she flies away
To walk upon the clouds

Can you hear me singing?
Can you see me lying
Down on the floor
Still laughing like a child?
My head is full of voices
My head is full of lights
So please let me go
Please let me run away

Silly laughing when I come home
There's just no reason to call
I try to leave you to forget you
I try to leave you to love you
try to leave you to love
leave to love you

I can see the daylight
And I feel it's right
That she's flowing now
She's flowing 'til it's through
A never-ending darkness
A never-ending night
Now she flies away
To walk upon the clouds

Silly laughing when I come home
There's just no reason to call
I try to leave you to forget you
I try to leave you to love you
try to leave you to love
leave you to love you

Silly laughing when I come home
There's just no reason to call
I try to leave you to forget you
I try to leave you to love you
try to leave you to love
leave you to love you

She's got me tied in a knot. That's what I thought she'd do.
Don't ask me what's on my mind. I'm fine. I'll push on through.
Not much to see on this angry street, so I'll sleep the day away.
Look past my barnacled mind and in time I'll roll the stone away.

While we still have the daylight, I might look these lessons in the eye.
While we still have the daylight, I might become some brand-new kinda guy.

Brass knuckles and birds on a wire retire but no one gets free.
I'd pay to tear these chains away, this steel sympathy.
Cut bait and cold black forty weight, no one can sing for me.
They fall down with grease in their eyes and cry. How could this come to be?

While we still have the daylight, I might look these lessons in the eye.
While we still have the daylight, I might become some brand-new kinda guy.

Daylight falls
And I'm lost in the big parade
Hold my hand darling
I'm afraid of the daylight
Shade is dark
Cool and languid for life or long
Safe in shadow, it's never as dark as the daylight
As the daylight
When I was just knee high
My momma told me never try to be someone that I am not
Yet over time I had forgot
A wandering child, so lost at play
He's found himself, but he can't find his way
In the daylight
Oh the daylight
Oh daylight
Oh daylight
Life is short
And there's no turning back the time
Fragrant meadows and rocks to climb
In that daylight
In my mind
There's a corner I need to turn
Lessons left is a lesson learned
In the daylight
In the daylight
I miss the forest shade that took me there
The promise I made can never leave the dark so dear
Safe and soothing yet I fear
As I recall and I reflect
I see it's safer to connect to the daylight
Oh the daylight
Oh daylight
Oh daylight
Daylight falls
And I'm lost in the big parade
Hold my hand darling, I'm afraid
Of the daylight
Of the day

Here I am waiting, i'll have to leave soon
Why am i, holding on?
We knew this day would come, we knew it all along
How did it, come so fast?
This is our last night but it's late
And i'm trying not to sleep
Cause I know, when I wake, I will have to slip away

And when the daylight comes i'll have to go
But tonight i'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah

Here I am staring at your perfection
In my arms, so beautiful
The sky is getting back the stars are burning out
Somebody slow it down
This is way too hard, cause I know
When the sun comes up, I will leave
This is my last glance that will soon be memory

And when the daylight comes i'll have to go
But tonight i'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah

I never wanted to stop because I don't wanna stuck alone babe, stuck alone babe
I was afraid of the dark but now it's all that I want, all that I want, all that I want

And when the daylight comes i'll have to go
But tonight i'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close

And when the daylight comes i'll have to go
But tonight i'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah
Oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah (yeah)
Oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah!

You were daddy's girl nice and sweet
Never in trouble mommy's honey
Little child who just couldn't see
The pressure from her so called friends
Was simply too much

The monkey slowly climbed on her back
Offering an aid for her pain
Giving love and care
No-one cared, no-one cared...

Fragile like a rose on the snow
Eating all your strength and your money
Walking in the shades day and night
Never letting sunshine in your eyes like before

Cannot shake the monkey off your back
Did I see a spark on your eye
Was it just the last light of hope
That died, hope that died

Forgive me, Father, my daily sin...

How can I forgive you, never leave you
You know that if you live
like, you will die like
Haven of Emotion, Mournful Ocean
Heiress of the Evening Sings in silence

I need to have now, my daily sin...

For all your life I prayed for time
To show you where the light lies
Now this is the end
One rose for the memory of the innosence...

I know, my Father, I cannot win...

Never will forgive you, never leave you
You know that if you live
like, you will die like
How can I erase your pain and aid you
When Death wants to kiss you and
you want kiss Him back...

Silence

To my sunk eyes
On my daylight
I saw a sunrise
I saw a sunlight.

I have no fear
In the dark
And the clouds burst
To show the daylight

Oooh and the sunshine
Yeah on a starry night
Ooooh and I realised
Ooooh could I live without
Ooooh could I part without

On a hill top
On the sky rise
Like a first born
Child

On a full day
On a full flight
I feel darkness
In the daylight

Oooh and the sunshine
Yeah on a starry night
Ooooh and I realised
Ooooh could I live without
Ooooh could I part without
Bring me your love

Slowly breaking through the daylight ...

Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade.
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight.
Shade is dark.
Cool and languid for life or love.
Safe in shadows; never stark as the daylight.
As the daylight.

When I was just knee high,
My Momma told me, never try,
To be someone that I am not.
Yet over time I had forgot,
The wandering child, so lost at play:
He's found himself but he can't find his way,
In the daylight.
Oh, the daylight.

Ooh, daylight.
Ooh, daylight.

Life is short, and there's no turning back the time.
Fragrant meadows and rocks to climb in the daylight.
In my mind,
There's a corner I need to turn.
Lessons lived is a lesson learned in the daylight.

Oh, the daylight. (Light.)

Ooh, daylight.
Ooh, daylight.

Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade.
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight.
Of the day...

You're a long walk in a rain storm
You're a cut that refuses to heal
You're a dull ache that I can't shake
You're a cold that's clogging up my head
Or a broke watch keeping time still
Till you pull me in pull me in
And I can't fight

If the night is cold
And you're feeling old
And the morning cuts you
Like a knife
And you're wearing thin
Feel you're giving in
In the darkest hour of the night
You find daylight

You're a stalled car in the desert
You're a song I can't get off my mind
And in a dire strait
With no hope at all in sight
You come rushing in rushing in
With a lifeline

If the night is cold
And you're feeling old
And the morning cuts you
Like a knife
And you're wearing thin
Feel you're giving in
In the darkest hour of the night
You find daylight

Pull me closer to your breast
I need you finally I confess
I'm drifting I'm drifting
I love you but I hate you too
God only knows what I could do
I'm drifting I'm drifting

Come on give me one reason
Come on find me in daylight
Come on give me one reason
Come on find me in daylight

If the night is cold
And you're feeling old
And the morning cuts you
Like a knife
And you're wearing thin
Feel you're giving in
In the darkest hour of the night
You find daylight
You'll find daylight

My friend, give me a minute here
You have no idea how to frame me
Brother Ali is this, Brother Ali is that
You ain't been right yet
So ok I'll do it myself
Ant, you got me?

[Verse 1]
Big Brother the beast I'm showing my teeth
Feel it all in the air it's too potent to breathe
Explosive with the free, got a heavy one I wrote up my sleeve
I could post up or go for the three
Versatile with it I'm grinding until I get it
Mindless of the defined limits or consequences
I defy critics I ain't scientific
I find my intrinsic vibe and I ride with it
Vocals no nothing other than soul touching
So if they land in yours it's just a home-coming
If they don't go there they might perish
Land on deaf ears but die unembarassed
You don't need to hear my race in the song
You hear the plane that I'm on
Your whole face change when I'm on
Your ears might help you see
Fuck hearing me I need you to feel like me

[Chorus] {x2}
Daylight
Let the dark side slide right on out you
Don't deny it announce it to the Daylight
Let it get inside of you 'cause you're not alive
until you open up your eyes

[Verse 2]
I never asked my brothers to put that crown on me
Now they want to frown on me, look down on me
Pardon me I don't think I'm hurting anybody
Just because I took shahadah but I'm cursing at the party
Ain't showing I'm holy just showing the whole me
Ya'll just pretend to be whatever your role be
Don't get me wrong preist and rabbi innam
but maybe that's why the masses don't respond
Can't sit and nit pick but miss the big shit
Expect us not to see the contradictions
Want us to listen and join your religion
I ain't got a pot to piss in who ya'll kidding
I believe in the Qu'ran and all that's within it
The concepts and all of the prophets that are mentioned
But I talk directly to God so if I'm sinning
ya'll ain't got nothing to do with me repenting

[Chorus] {x2}

[Verse 3]
If I'm an open book this is how I'm supposed to look
I got to show it all and don't be shook
So they ask me if I'm black or white, I'm neither
Race is a made up thing I don't believe in it
My genes tie me to those that despised me
Made a living killing the ones that inspired me
I ain't just talking about singing and dancing
I was taught life and manhood by black men
So I'm a product of that understanding
And a small part of me feels like I am them
Does that make me a liar maybe
but I don't want the white folks that praise me to think they can claim me
'Cause you didn't make me
You don't appreciate what I know to be great yet you relate to me
and that frustrates me and what can I say
'cause I know that I benefit from something I hate
But make no mistake our connection ain't fake
It's never too late to clear off the slate
You follow my tape then you know What I'm about
If something comes up then it must come out

[Chorus] {x2}

If you can believe you're turning
all the world that broke your mind
then i can do something for you
even though you're lost in time
you won't have to be my heaven.
i won't have to be your friend

daylight, daylight comes every time it's calling
daylight, daylight it goes away again now
don't let go
don't let go of your heart
don't let go
don't let go of your heart

feel like your skin is burning
into many drops of rain
but it's doing nothing to me drowning
in a sea of pain
you won't have to be my heaven.
i won't have to be your friend

daylight, daylight comes every time it's calling
daylight, daylight it goes away again now
don't let go don't let go of your heart
don't let go don't you know who you are
don't let go don't let go of your heart
don't let go don't let go of your heart

Yeah,
You know what it is,
It's your man Travis.

Is this world spinning 'round?
Maybe you're just hard to find
How long will you be down?
There's not much comfort in my night

Without you I'm a shooting star
I'm aimless in the night
Without you I'm just wild...

Daylight, you reign the stars
Daylight, you reach my heart
Daylight, you flood the dawn
Daylight, you tame my heart
Daylight

Do you always have to leave?
Maybe you could stop this time
Your shine got a hold on me
There's not much solace in my night

Without you I'm a shooting star
Aimless in the night
Without you I'm just wild...

Daylight, Oh Daylight
You reach my heart
And you tame my heart

We cut the legs off of our pants
Threw our shoes into the ocean
Sit back and wave through the daylight
Sit back and wave through the daylight

Slip and slide on subway grates
These shoes are poor mans ice skates
Fall through like change in the daylight
Fall through like change in the daylight

I miss yellow lines in my roads
Some color on monochrome
Maybe I’ll paint them in myself
Maybe I’ll paint them in myself

Maybe I’ll paint them in myself
Maybe I’ll paint them in myself
Maybe I’ll paint them in myself
Maybe I’ll paint them in myself

These sidewalks liquid then stone
Building walls and an old pay phone
It rings like all through the daylight
It rings like all through the daylight

Chorus:
And in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
I hope that someday I’ll see without these frames
And in the daylight I don’t pick up my phone
'Cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home

I have five clocks in my life
And only one has the time right
I’ll just unplug it for today
I'll just unplug it for today

Open hydrant, rolled down windows
This car might make a good old boat
And float down grand street in daylight
And float down grand street in daylight
And float down grand street in daylight
And float down grand street in daylight

And with just half of the sunburn
New yellow lines that I earned
Step back and here comes the night time
Step back and here comes the night time

Chorus:
And in the daylight we can hitchhike to Maine
I hope that someday I’ll see without these frames
And in the daylight I don’t pick up my phone
'Cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home

And in the daylight we can hitchhike to Maine
I hope that someday I’ll see without these frames
And in the daylight I don’t pick up my phone
'Cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home

we cut the legs off of our pants
threw our shoes into the ocean
sit back and wave through the daylight
sit back and wave through the daylight

slip and slide on subway grates
these shoes are poor mans ice skates
fall through like change in the daylight
fall through like change in the daylight

i miss yellow lines in my roads
some color on monochrome
maybe i’ll paint them in myself
maybe i’ll paint them in myself

these sidewalks liquid then stone
building walls and an old pay phone
it rings like all through the daylight
it rings like all through the daylight

chorus
and in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
i hope that someday i’ll see without these frames
and in the daylight i don’t pick up my phone
cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home

I have five clocks in my life
and only one has the time right
i’ll just unplug it for today
ill just unplug it for today

open hydrant rolled down windows
this car might make a good old boat
and float down grand street in daylight
and float down grand street in daylight

and with just half of a sunburn
new yellow lines that i earned
step back and here comes the night time
step back and here comes the night time

chorus
and in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
i hope that someday i’ll see without these frames
and in the daylight i don’t pick up my phone
cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home

(Sung by Chorus)

Daylight over the Village Green early in the morning.
Daylight over the hills and valleys heralding the morning.
Daylight over the mountains, daylight on the Village Green,
Daylight over the field and the factories.
Another night has gone away and here comes yet another day.

See the early morning risers walking round with bleary eyes.
Worn out housewives grit their teeth ignoring new born babies' cries.
Look at all the busy people this way, that way, everywhere
Biting toast and swallowing tea and breakfast specials on the air.
Feel that daylight.

Feel the sunlight on my pillow and it stops my yawing.
I thank God that I'm still around to see another dawn in.
Daylight over the valleys, daylight lighting up the trees,
Daylight over the hillside,
Smile a smile and sing a song, another night has been and gone.

Middle-aged bankers crack their backs and wish they were young and in their teens,
Lonely spinsters dream of dating Roger Moore or Steve McQueen.
Health fanatics in their attics training for the Empire Games,
School boys dream of Captain Scarlet, battle ships and aeroplanes.

Feel that daylight, Daylight.
Daylight on the Village Green,
Daylight,
Field and the valleys,
Daylight.

Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade.
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight.
Shade is dark.
Cool and languid for life or love.
Safe in shadows; never stark as the daylight.
As the daylight.

When I was just knee high,
My Momma told me, never try,
To be someone that I am not.
Yet over time I had forgot,
The wandering child, so lost at play:
He's found himself but he can't find his way,
In the daylight.
Oh, the daylight.

Ooh, daylight.
Ooh, daylight.

Life is short, and there's no turning back the time.
Fragrant meadows and rocks to climb in the daylight.
In my mind,
There's a corner I need to turn.
Lessons lived is a lesson learned in the daylight.
In the daylight.

I miss the forest shade,
You took me there, the promise I made,
To never leave the dark so deep.
Safe and soothing, yet I fear,
As I recall and now reflect,
I see it's safer to connect,
To the daylight.
Oh, the daylight. (Light.)

Ooh, daylight.
Ooh, daylight.

Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade.
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight.
Of the day...

Is it daylight?
I hardly ever notice
I hardly feel the sun
And I never feel anyone?
(repeat)

And if you could hold me now
Oh baby
Then we could go around again
(repeat)

Is it daylight?
I hardly ever notice
I hardly feel the sun
And I never feel anyone?
(repeat)
