Sun Kissed Skies

Verse 1

I feel the weight of heavy eyes,
Darkened down by heavy skies.
I’ve been walking, I’ve been torn,
Paying the price since I was born.

Chorus

So wipe away my burning tears,
Hold me close and calm my fears.
I long for rest, for open eyes,
Lighter now, under sun-kissed skies.

Verse 2

Every sinew stretched and worn,
Every fiber bruised and torn.
“Sorry” is easy, but I’ve done no wrong,
Still I’ve been singing this all day long.

Chorus

So wipe away my burning tears,
Hold me close and calm my fears.
I long for rest, for open eyes,
Lighter now, under sun-kissed skies.

Bridge

I’m searching for eternal peace,
The road I walked, I need release.
Embrace me now, don’t let me fall,
Your gentle light can heal it all.

Final Chorus

So wipe away my burning tears,
Hold me close and calm my fears.
I long for rest, for open eyes,
Lighter now, under sun-kissed skies.
