When a Man Touches the Sun

from Until I Reach the Sun, Vol. 1 by The Ridleys

/

lyrics

There's nothing quite as warm
There's nothing quite as warm
There's nothing quite as warm as being pulled into you arms

There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do to break myself free from your charms

Oh brightest star
You're the nearest one but still so far
Up in the sky
I don't know if I could reach that high

If I never get to feel that light
I guess it's just all right
Try as I may with all my might
Scars will never be undone
When a man touches the sun

Oh what a thing to do
Oh what a thing to do
Oh what a thing to do if we could try out something new

Oh it would be so grand
Oh would it be so grand
If you discovered that I wrote and sang this for you

Oh brightest star
You're the nearest one but still so far
Up in the sky
I don't know if I could reach that high

If I never get to feel that light
I guess it's just all right
Try as I may with all my might
Scars will never be undone
When a man touches the sun

If I never get to feel that light
I guess it's just all right
Try as I may with all my might
Scars will never be undone
When a man touches the sun
