Lyrics
Give me the sun
Would you give me the sun, Helen?
Would you give me the sun?
Cause I want it so badly
I will cry out sadly
Give me the sun
Can?t you see your house is falling?
Can?t you feel the dark?
Do you want it so badly?
You will cry out sadly
Some day
The wolves stand there in front of me
I?m alone, mom, can?t you see, can?t you see?
The end has begun and I just want to run
Give me the sun
I left the light just for you
I left the light
Can?t you see why I?m crying?
Can?t you see that I?m dying?
Give me the sun
The road lies ahead and in front of me
I?m alone, mom can?t you see, can?t you see?
My legs are cut off and the wind is too rough
Give me the sun
