Alison Krause And Union Station Daylight Lyrics

Daylight Lyrics

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 lots to climb in the daylight.
In my
mind,
There's a corner I need to turn.
Lesson 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.

Instrumental break.

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

Fade.
