Free in the Sunlight

In a night with not light

In an ice cold night

I squeezed my eyes tight

Lost all the straight

And missed the sunlight

The moon does shine bright

We all love moonlight

But If it’s the midnight

It fills you with fright

And robs your hindsight

Maybe I’m right

To chase the sunlight

Defying what’s right

And go offer my sight

Well maybe I might

I know it’s not right

And that’s why I fight

But there ain’t no knight

Who could outfight

And let me and my fright

Lost free in the sunlight
