When I was young lying in the grass
I felt so safe in a warming bath
Of sunlight, of sunlight
Vast open sky could do no harm
Like an embrace from mother's arms
In sunlight, in sunlight
In sunlight, in sunlight
With every year that came to pass
More clouds appeared 'til the sky went black
And there was no sunlight, no sunlight
And there was no sunlight, no sunlight anymore
It disappeared with the same speed
As the idealistic things I believed
The optimist died inside of me
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
It disappeared with the same speed
As the idealistic things I believed
The optimist died inside of me
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight anymore
