Shooting Sun Lyrics

Siouxsie & The Banshees Shooting Sun

We’ve been waiting inside our fears Eyes that scorn you imprison you with tears Now awoken rise up your new age schemes Just like the shooting sun mirrors your golden dreams

And we’ll wait for you ‘til dawn – ring it in To stare back at the eyes that scorn – ring it in

We’ve been sinking with every step they spurn Now we’re thinking it’s time for them to burn Crept up slowly with a pocket full of beams Softly spoken ‘Take these eyes and see’

And we’ll curse the years of stone – it’s ringing in We’ll laugh in the eyes that scorn

We’ll light them one by one touched by the shooting sun Flames run in golden streams echoing golden dreams We’ll kiss them one by one just like the shooting sun

We’ll burst the ears of stone We’ll laugh in the eyes that scorn – ring it in

We’ll light them one by one touched by the shooting sun We’ll kiss them one by one like my shooting sun My shooting son
