Hello Sunshine - Billie Marten

Well I’m sorry if I seem sad to you

I can’t help the dreams I’ve had

Why am I so damn attached to greying

It’s a game that I’ve had trouble playing

There’s an old man and the sea

He’s going to a land of yellow seed

How I wish I was like him, all-knowing

How he sees the salt in which to swim

Then my eyes would not end up this dim

And then I could shed this water skin

Oh, sorrow’s coming again

My old friend

Still we run on

It plays over again

Here in my head

With or without

And I know I’d do it again

But until then, smile with me now

And smile with me now

In the end we’ll find our boats and sail them

To this land of isles remote

And bathe in the light, the lemon light

Hello sunshine, it’s nice to meet you
