The sun and I
Are rather close, these days

I saw it first years ago
It was jumping high
I loved it so

Its eyes met mine
Its eyes met mine
On the widest road
I've ever seen

The sun and I
Are rather close, these days
The sun and I
Are rather close, these days

It pulled me back through a dream
Of a soiled sash, of a southern queen
Her eyes met mine
Her eyes met mine
She's rolling fast
And still in spring

The sun and I
Are rather close, these days

A road in fact
Still in spring
