A Little Sun

Little Tom’s imagination
Is a railway to the sun
Mister Watson’s expectation
Is a brand new smoking gun

Now tell me baby,
Tell me: who’s right?
I know them well babe
They make me feel fine

That’s what you got here
A little sun beyond the sky
You know we need it
Something special for this life
Just a pinch of light to get by
At times I wonder how to get flying
And check it out

There’s a girl down at the station
She’s a flirt she doesn’t care
There’s an old man whose reservation
Made her miss her big affair

Take a look, my baby,
Are they out of sight?
Let me warn you baby
Keep them out of your mind

You know what you got here
A little sun beyond the sky
You know we need it
Something special for this life
It’s just a pinch of light to get by
I once wondered how to get out
And give it up

Some people breeze through
Some people hide food in the night
The ruling party
The king of the booze, the world and his wife

Now there is no more game
Nor a word I can say
That brings me back the warmth of my days

But when I see your eyes
I feel a glimpse of my life
That gives me back some love for the race

Now tell me baby,
Tell me who’s right?
You know them well babe
They just feel all right

You know what you got here
A little sun beyond the sky
You know we need it
Something special for this life
It’s just a pinch of light to get by
At times I wonder how to get flying and
And check it out
