Lick The Sunshine

M.L. Kortes/D. Buskin

Prisoners of circumstance

Locked in this time and place

Trading on our innocence

These chains fall off like lace

Just beneath the surface

We've known it all along

No matter what the consequence

Before the light is gone

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

We've got magic up our sleeves

And only us to please

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

I feel your breath upon me

No finer wind than that

Your fingers tap a rhythm

Like the footfalls of a cat

True lovers of adventure

Dancing down the road

Drinking in the atmosphere

Collecting what we're owed

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

We've got magic up our sleeves

And only us to please

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

I'm waiting on the lawn

In shades of green and gold

So many moments passing

So few you want to hold

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

We've got magic up our sleeves

And only us to please

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

Lick the sunshine off the leaves

We've got magic up our sleeves

The world is at our knees

Lick the sunshine off the leaves
