Lyrics: Death Cab For Cutie. Narrow Stairs. No Sunlight.

When I was young lying in the grass
I felt so safe in a warming bath
Of sunlight, of sunlight

Vast open sky could do no harm
Like an embrace from mother's arms
In sunlight, in sunlight
In sunlight, in sunlight

With every year that came to pass
More clouds appeared 'til the sky went black
And there was no sunlight, no sunlight
And there was no sunlight, no sunlight anymore

It disappeared with the same speed
As the idealistic things I believed
The optimist died inside of me

No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight

It disappeared with the same speed
As the idealistic things I believed
The optimist died inside of me

No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight anymore
