about

“Sun Hasn’t Shone” on the surface is about longing for sunshine and warmth in the dead of winter. But with a closer listen, this song is about the nostalgia of returning to a place once loved only to find that it has changed. The harmonies and soaring, heart-wrenching lead vocal are at the core of “Sun Hasn’t Shone,” supported by driving acoustic guitar, explorative bass, and vintage keys.

lyrics

Standing on this roof
Looking over the town I grew up in
And it looks a little bit lonely
I don’t recognize these streets anymore

But the feeling’s familiar
But then again I don’t know it at all
It seems as though nowadays
Maybe I
Maybe I am the stranger

Stepping stones and
Missing bones
Tell me where the sun hasn’t shone
There’s an aching in my chest
And it’s the only thing I seem to have left and I
Want my hope to stay strong
So please don’t fail me now

If I could be a bird
I’d fly south before it gets cold
It seems as though nowadays
There’s a haze
Across the surface of the standstill water

Stepping stones and
Missing bones
Tell me where the sun hasn’t shone
There’s an aching in my chest
And it’s the only thing I seem to have left and I
Want my hope to stay strong
So please don’t fail me now

The middle of the winter
And singing I can’t find you in the cold
How can I get to you?
When it’s the sun that illuminates your soul
But I can’t find no sunlight
Anywhere at all
Anywhere at all

Stepping stones and
Missing bones
Tell me where the sun has not shone
There’s an aching in my chest
And it’s the only thing I seem to have left and I
Want my hope to stay strong
So please don’t fail me now
Please don’t fail me now
Hope don’t fail me
