Where the Sun Finds Me (Phoenix Interlude)

[Female Vocal – soft, intimate, slightly behind the beat] [Intro] (soft piano, brushed drums enter gently) [Verse 1] Morning leaks through the blinds, I hear you move down the hall, You say my name so softly, But I’m not lonely at all. Coffee warming the kitchen, Your hand resting on my head, I stay there just a moment, Then I slip out instead. The screen door barely whispers, I pass through like a breeze, You think I’m running from you, I’m only looking for peace. [Chorus] I just go where the sun finds me, Warm soft turf under my feet, No one asking where I’ve been, No one needing anything. I don’t mind your love sometimes, Just not all day, not all night, Out here I can finally breathe, I just go where the sun finds me. [Verse 2] Ellie’s talking to shadows, Charlie pacing the room, They think the day’s a story, I think the day’s a tune. The air sits warm on my shoulders, Cool wind rests on my coat, I close my eyes in the silence, And listen to nothing at all. [Bridge] I’m not leaving you, I just need sky, A little quiet, A little time. I still know your voice, I still know your feet, I love you better, After I’m free. [Final Chorus] I just go where the sun finds me, Golden light through the trees, No one telling me stay inside, No one pulling at me. When the evening air turns cool, And you finally call my name, I walk back in beside you, But I’m never quite the same. [Outro] Tomorrow you’ll ask me to stay, I’ll look at you… Then drift away.
