Woke up today and the sun was shining
I said, "Mr. Sun, where have you been?'
He told me, "Sorry, dear, I had to go away
But never have no fear, I'm always back again
I got to show you the dark so you can really feel the light, you know?"
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
Chasin' after you, I'm on the run
Chasin' after you, I'm on the run
Mr. Sun, I need you
I'm only happy with you
No one lifts me like you do
You really are a vital dude, aren't you?
In your presence, I'm extra green (I'm extra green)
I know I like to get extra lean (I know I like to get extra lean)
I want you all, there's no in-between
I'm all or nothing, you know what I mean
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
Chasin' after you, I'm on the run
Chasin' after you, I'm on the run
I'm stuck today inside, the sun ain't shinin'
And I know you're there, but I can't see ya
It's lookin' very grey, my green's all gone away
You said you're here to stay
Don't let your monkey mind stray too far
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
Trapped in Babylon without no sun
Trapped in Babylon without no sun
