Widow in the Sunlight Lyrics

Wake up with pillows
Try work. Drive home

May everything you lose come to find you
In sunlight, moonlight, this life, next life
In the dark night, when the long life
Comes to grip tight, may it all fid you -
A love that was blind and love without time -
May it all find you
In sunlight, moonlight, this life, next life

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

From DigBoston:
“One of the album’s most commonly misread song titles, ‘Widow in the Sunlight,’ came from Flynn realizing the weight of this juxtaposition in real time.
‘My father passed away on the eve of March 30th, and it was a perfectly gorgeous spring,’ says Flynn. ‘I remember one time, I pulled into my driveway and my mother was sitting in a chair in sunlight. She was sitting there, right in the middle of the lawn. And it was fucking sad. Seeing her sitting there, taking it in, the warmth, and yet you know she’s just terribly, terribly upset deep down. I’ll never forget it.’”
(as reported by Nina Corcoran)
