  • Well, I got my mind out of sight
    Lost the common sense,
    Got a rave in my brain
    Like I'm without defense.

    Till I catch my eyes right in front of me,
    It's a bloke of a man finally taking me.
    Hey cute from the left, oh yeah
    Why'd his move he had me shake out a lie
    He really had it going

    The crowd's getting thinner
    We are getting closer,
    With a hole in my head
    He took me to his sofa

    Well now the sun ain't shining no more,
    I don't know why but I've seen it before.
    Ain't got no joy no man to lean on,
    He leaves my soul on the floor like a doll.

    He was young, he was hot,
    He made me feel alive.
    So in love I was falling,
    Ooh, it's early morning.

    He took me in his hands
    And squeezed me real tight.
    I was humbled (???)
    But depending on this guy
    He didn't last very long,
    A week or maybe two.
    When he called me on the phone
    Saying baby I don't love you.

    Just another lonely love
    Always giving never get.
    And now I feel so stupid
    It's like a deja vu ooooooo

    Because the sun ain't shining no more,
    I don't know why but I've seen it before.
    Ain't got no joy no man to lean on,
    He leaves my soul on the floor like a doll.

    Oh no the sun ain't shining no more,
    I don't know why but I've seen it before.
    Ain't got no joy no man to lean on,
    He leaves my soul on the floor like a doll.

    Yeah, yeaaahhhh

    For a while I'm shining
    But later I'm crying.
    I'm sick and stronger,
    I'm always getting weaker.

    For a while I'm shining
    But later I'm crying
    I'm sick and stronger
    I'm always getting weaker

    Yeah now the sun ain't shining no more,
    I don't know why but I've seen it before.
    Ain't got no joy no man to lean on,
    He leaves my soul on the floor like a doll. Writer/s: LARS IVERSEN, METTE PEDERSEN
