One day, not long ago
I asked the Sun to stay
Stand by me forever and love me no other way
There was no reply, no other way
But I felt it tried to stay

And so (and so)
I asked the Sun to stay
And so
I asked the Sun to stay
But knew
I'd let her go some day (let her go someday)
But knew (but then I knew, but then I knew)
I'd let her go some day (let her go someday)

Verse 2
When the tilt of earth had worn away the glow
The warmth we once felt had gone away
Love has found a new place
A new home in what I used to know

And so (and so)
I asked the Sun to stay
And so
I asked the Sun to stay
But knew
I'd let her go some day (let her go someday)
But knew (but then I knew, but then I knew)
I'd let her go some day (let her go someday)

Verse 3
After all this time
The Sun will never shine
It lights up the sky like it once felt that day
Brings joy and happiness but always goes away

And so (and so)
I asked the Sun to stay (I asked the Sun to stay)
And so
I asked the Sun to stay
But then I knew
I'd let her go some day (let her go someday)
But then I knew
Would let her go, let her go, let her go, let her go some day, some day
I asked the Sun, I asked the Sun to stay
But then I knew, but then I knew I had to let her go someday
But then I knew I had to let her go someday

Ayy, ayy, and so, and so
And so, and-and-and so
It was the hardest decision to make
But I knew I had to let her, let her go some day
But then I knew
I'd let her go some day
But knew
I'd let her go some day
