Look Me in the Eye...

It's fun
Being the Sun

Being Today's light
Not knowing the Darkness
Of Tomorrow's fright

Being The Warmth
Good enough for me
Or You, or for Both

Then at Night
You think I'm gone
Putting the Shadows away
Turning off the Furnace
While You hide in the Dark
Thankful to escape the Heat

But where is the Shade
For Me?
But where is the Breeze
For Me?

Lonely Sun
Contrary Sun

Shining On
Burning On

You know why?

Because
The best way to dodge
A peering gaze
A deceitful gaze
Isn't a curtain
Isn't a smokescreen
Isn't a maze

When you're the Sun
It is
The ability to say
"Look Me in the Eye"
