Lyrics

Like The Sun
By Ted Horrell

Years ago when this all started
You weren’t exactly what I wanted
I wasn’t all you hoped that I would be
But in the years we’ve been together
I have grown to love you better
And now you occupy the better part of me

Even though
Even though
Our young love it did not leave a tail of sparks
Now we know
Now we know
We were never mean to be like shooting stars

We always hoped it would be easy
The fireworks the warm and breezy
But it was real work and not fireworks at all
But the respect we share, we earned it
And I expect we’d both be burned if
We’d set a fire amongst the dry leaves that fall

Even though
Even though
We had to first learn how to give to receive
Now we know
Now we know
Sturdy wood will burn much longer than dead leaves

There were missteps and bruised feelings
There were open wounds and healings
But we always came out stronger in the end
To our surprise and to our credit
When we watched the latest edit
We were so much more than lovers we were friends

Even though
Even though
It wasn’t obvious that we could become one
Now we know
Now we know
Our love is not a shooting star it’s like the sun
