The sun came up this morning; it caught me by surprise
A desperate question answered, a hungry baby cries
The city lights still shimmer as traffic weaves its way
Life goes on, but not the same; it’s different today

In my mind you’ll always be a young man finding gold
In every situation, your warmth would melt the cold
I tried to share my greatest gift, to put your mind at ease
But worry that I may have missed the forest and the trees

Chorus
Let your burdens disappear
Let the door swing closed
No more struggle, no more fear
At your angle of repose

The sun came up this morning, stillness in the air
A desperate answer questioned, a hungry truth laid bare
Your lighthouse fire guides me here from far away
Your melodies inspire me when emotions fray

Chorus
Let your burdens disappear
Let the door swing closed
No more struggle, no more fear
At your angle of repose
Instrumental Bridge

If the sun comes up tomorrow, will I be there all day?
Another puzzle fragment, another game to play
My wattage isn’t epic, but hear me when I say
I hope in time to shine as bright as you shine today

Chorus
Let your burdens disappear
Let the door swing closed
No more struggle, no more fear
At your angle of repose
Let your burdens disappear
Let the door swing closed
No more struggle, no more fear
At your angle of repose
No more struggle, no more fear
At your angle of repose
