Gord Downie, The Sadies - The Conquering Sun Lyrics

It's getting on time to plant
Under the conquering sun
We were willing to a man
Under the conquering sun

But, for the sound of the whip-poor-will
And what is to occur
Night is a ways off still
Soon I will be with her
She is more than a conqueror

Working the fugitive dust
Under the conquering sun
Nature, please be good to us
Under the conquering sun

But, with the sound of the whip-poor-will
And what is to occur
Night, the quickening thrill
Soon I will be with her
She is more than a conqueror

Ooh, day is your word, night is the glue
Ooh, it is the work, day is your word, night is the glue

Sound of the whip-poor-will
Of what is to occur
Night, the quickening thrill
Soon I will be with her
She is more than a conqueror

Ooh, day is your word, night is the glue
Ooh, it is the work, day is your word, night is the glue
Ooh, night is the glue, night is the glue
Ooh, conquering sun, night is the glue
Conquering sun, night is the glue
Conquering sun, night is the glue
Conquering sun, night is the glue
Night is the glue
