Woke up today and the sun was shining
I said Mr. Sun
Where have you been?
He told me sorry dear
I had to go away
But never have no fear
I'm always back again
I got to show you the dark
So you can really feel the light
You know
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
Chasin' after you I'm on the run
Chasin' after you I'm on the run
Mr. Sun I need you
I'm only happy with you
No one lifts me like you do
You really are a vital dude, aren't you
In your presence I'm extra green
I know I like to get extra lean
I want new orders, no inbetween
I'm all or nothing, you know what I mean
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
Chasin' after you I'm on the run
Chasin' after you I'm on the run
I start to dance like the sun is shining and I know you 're there
But I can't see, I
It's looking very grey,
my green's all gone away
You said you're here to stay
Don't let your monkey mind stray
Too far
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
I can't lie, I need you Mr. Sun
Trapped in Babylon without no sun
Trapped in Babylon without no sun
