We were tourists in adolescence
We were lovers in regression
And every time I hold your hand
I feel something different in your palm
[Verse 2]
Such a palette of colours
That you've never seen
And you never dreamed
You could look upwards for so long
[Refrain]
As you stare into the sun
(Since, since I) Stare into the sun
(Since, since I) Stare into the sun
(Since, since I) Stare into the sun
But I want you back to me
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
You're still a child to me
You're Adam's son
And as you sew
The leaves around your waist
You look the same
But your eyes have changed
They seem to shake
They seem to break
[Refrain]
As you stare, stare into the sun
(Since, since I) Stare into the sun
(Since, since I) Stare into the sun
(Since, since I) Stare into the sun
But I want you back to me
[Outro]
I know you hide behind
I know you hide behind yourself
I know you hide behind
I know you hide behind yourself
I know you hide behind
I know you hide behind yourself
I know you hide behind
But I want you back to me
