When The Sun Shone

Metal towers catching amber light
Chrome reflections in the fading night
We were dancing on the edge of time
When the sun shone, you were mine

Electric whispers in the air
Golden moments everywhere
Shadows stretching long and thin
Where do we end and dreams begin?

When the sun shone, when the sun shone
We were infinite and never alone
When the sun shone, when the sun shone
Made a kingdom from skin and bone

Velvet voices from the radio
Painting pictures only we could know
Street corner prophets speaking truth
When the sun shone on our youth

Crystalline and burning bright
Caught between the day and night
Everything was possible then
Will we ever feel that way again?

When the sun shone, when the sun shone
We were infinite and never alone
When the sun shone, when the sun shone
Made a kingdom from skin and bone

Now the satellites are spinning round
But I can't hear that old familiar sound
The light has changed its frequency
But somewhere in my memory
