Marillion Lyrics

Album: Afraid of Sunlight

Afraid Of Sunrise Lyrics

Lyrics: Hogarth/Helmer

Music: Hogarth/Kelly/Mosley/Rothery/Trewavas 

Dressed in black, no turning back 

We blanked out on the Great White Way 

Fingers in desire's crack

We'd bridge and tunnel into day 

Abandoned to the salt of skin

Abandoned to the highway 

Sand running in the hourglass 

Heat of leather and mirages 

So how do we now come to be afraid of sunlight 

So how do we now come to be afraid of sunlight 

Day-Glo Jesus on the dash 

Scorch marks on the road ahead

Friendly fire in hostile waters

Keep the faith, don't lose your head

Don't lose your head 

So how do we now come to be afraid of sunlight 

Afraid of Sunlight

Agave flower

Sleep beside me 

Driving on 

Nevada's burning 

Phoenix rising 

Driving on

To sunlight 

Day-Glo Jesus on the dash 

Scorch marks on the road ahead 

Friendly fire in hostile waters 

Keep the faith, don't lose your head

Don't lose your head 

So how do we now come to be afraid of sunlight 

How do we now come to be afraid 

Afraid of sunlight
