Music by Jim Trainor. Lyrics by Liam Butler.
STARING DOWN THE SUN
You're the one, golden and going strong
Take a bow, take it to the world somehow
But tell me who is standing here, all on his own, staring down the sun
Not blinking til the evening comes
I'm not blinking til the evening comes down
Look at you, shining like diamonds do
Standing tall, shouting from the highest walls
But tell me who is standing here, all on his own, staring down the sun
Not blinking til the evening comes
I'm not blinking til the evening comes down
You're getting higher, getting higher, getting higher, so high
You're getting higher, getting higher, getting higher, don't look down
It's so far down
Pack it up, drop it in a paper cup
Thanks a lot, see you when it all gets hot
Meanwhile I'll be standing here, all on my own, still staring down the sun
Won't blink until the evening comes
I won't blink until the evening comes down
Not blinking until the evening comes
