  • I had a dream last night
    A nightmare to be exact
    We couldn't take the heat
    And the sweat dripped from our backs
    I didn't go I waited for the
    Midnight sun
    I didn't want to leave you
    Cause I don't have anyone

    Don't paint the sun anymore
    Paint the moon, and the stars
    In an autumn sky
    Paint me cool blue waters, with
    Shades of gray, just don't let me
    Live my life this way
    Without you

    Let it go, let it go
    Let it fall down from the sky
    And leave this world behind

    I saw you suffering, so I knelt
    Down by your side, I saw that you
    Were fading, that you were leaving
    Your own mind
    I gave you water just to soothe your
    Failing heart and take away the fear
    Of what we both know we will find

    Don't paint the sun anymore
    Paint the moon, and the stars
    In an autumn sky
    Paint me cool blue waters, with
    Shades of gray, just don't let me
    Live my life this way
    Without you Writer/s: JOHN GRANT
