Afraid Of Sunrise Lyrics

Marillion Afraid Of Sunrise

Dressed in black, no turning back
We blanked out on the Great White Way
Fingers in desires crack
We'd bridge and tunnel into day

Abandoned to the salt of skin
Abandoned to the highway
Sand running in the hourglass
Heat of leather and mirages

So how do we now come to be
Afraid of sunlight
So how do we now come to be
Afraid of sunlight

Day glow Jesus on the dash
Scorch marks on the road ahead
Friendly fire in hostile waters
Keep the faith, don't lose your head
Don't lose your head

Afraid of sunlight
So how do we now come to be
Afraid of sunlight

Agave flower sleep beside me
Driving on
Nevada's burning, Phoenix rising
Driving on, driving on to sunlight

Day glow Jesus on the dash
Scorch marks on the road ahead
Friendly fire in hostile waters
Keep the faith, don't lose your head
Don't lose your head

Afraid of sunlight
How do we now come to be
Afraid, afraid of sunlight
Sunlight, sunlight
