Lost Him in the Sun - Nanci Griffith

Any given day there’s a jet flying somewhere

Oh, we bought a ticket and vanished in the sky

And how was I to know he was leaving in the morning

I never heard him go, and then he never said goodbye

I’ve learned to love the night, 'cause the light’s gonna get ya Right between the eyes in the morning like a gun

And reaching out your hand and he’s not there beside you

Oh, what can I say, I lost him in the sun

Hey and what have I done?

I lost him in the sun

I lost him in the sun

Oh, I lost him in the sun

Oh, I lost him in the sun

Yeah I lost him in the sun

Yeah I lost him in the sun

Fire up your hearts 'cause the wind is getting cold

It always gets cold for the riders of the night

You carry that scar when you know what lonely is Looking for a home like a bird, like a bird in flight

Oh and what have I done?

Yeah I lost him in the sun

Yeah I lost him in the sun
