This melodic piece explores the universal longing for simpler times, especially in an era characterized by rapid change and uncertainty. The lyrics express a yearning for tranquility amidst chaos, symbolized by "sunshine." It reflects on the stressors of modern life - societal pressures, financial struggles, global crises - prompting the desire to retreat to a past perceived as less complicated. The repeated plea to "take me back" underscores this sentiment. However, it also acknowledges that moving forward is inevitable ("Tomorrow may never come easy"). It's a poignant reminder of the human tendency to romanticize the past while grappling with present challenges and future anxieties.
Sunshine
Lyrics
Hear me now
Mark my words
Sometimes living just takes some courage
When the sky is falling and the talking heads
Say “To sell some omelets gotta break some eggs”
Got half a lung and two left shoes
A bulletproof vest and some breaking news
And I’m a blue collar criminal
If I forget my rent is due
Yesterday wouldn’t believe me
Tomorrow may never come easy
Take me back
To a simpler time
Nothing but sunshine on my mind
Cause I’ve been going crazy
Wish someone would
Take me back
To a simpler time
Trouble had a backseat in my life
Cause I’m not thinking straightly
Wish someone would take me back
I’m all alone
I’m freaking out
I grab my phone and it calms me down
Scroll past the cats and the foreign press
And then I fill my mind with too much sex
I got half a life
Left to live
Without a world war or any viruses
I’d like to try to buy a house before the ice melts and the tide comes crashing in
Yesterday wouldn’t believe me
Tomorrow may never come easy
Take me back
To a simpler time
Nothing but sunshine on my mind
Cause I’ve been going crazy
Wish someone would
Take me back
To a simpler time
Trouble had a backseat in my life
Cause I’m not thinking straightly
Wish someone would take me back
Wish I could rewind
Leave the future far behind me
Wish I could rewind
Leave the future far behind me
Take me back
To a simpler time
Nothing but sunshine on my mind
Cause I’ve been going crazy
Wish someone would
Take me back
To a simpler time
Trouble had a backseat in my life
Cause I’m not thinking straightly
Wish someone would take me back
