No Sunlight

When I was young, lying in the grass

I felt so safe in a warming bath

Of sunlight, of sunlight

Vast open sky could do no harm

Like an embrace of a mother's arms

In sunlight, in sunlight

In sunlight, in sunlight

With every year that came to pass

More clouds appeared till the sky went black

And there was

No sunlight, no sunlight

And there was

No sunlight, no sunlight anymore

And it disappeared at the same speed

The idealistic things I believed

The optimist died inside of me

No sunlight, no sunlight

No sunlight, no sunlight

And it disappeared at the same speed

The idealistic thing I believed

The optimist died inside of me

No sunlight, no sunlight

No sunlight, no sunlight

No sunlight, no sunlight

No sunlight, no sunlight

No sunlight anymore
