"For The Sun" lyrics

"For The Sun"

I'm not doing bad but I'm not doing fantastic
The treatment didn't take
I hit the bars then I take the train out to Coney Island

I said a lot of things that you probably took wrong
I walk across the boardwalk singing your song

You're just like the water
And I'm just like a wish
A penny wouldn't cover it
You never throw it in

Now I'm just waiting for the sun to come
Now I'm just waiting for the sun

And I'm not gonna break
I'm not gonna break
I'm not gonna break
I'm not gonna break in two

I bought a book of lists I like to read in the bath
When I'm not holding on to you

I said a lot of things that you probably took wrong
I walk across the boardwalk singing your song

You're just like the water
And I'm just like a wish
A penny wouldn't cover it
You never throw it in

Now I'm just waiting for the sun to come
Now I'm just waiting for the sun

Now I'm just waiting for the sun to come
Now I'm just waiting for the sun to come
