Sunrise
- Simply Red Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The light behind your face helps me realize (sunrise)
Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines
Maybe the next time I'll be yours and maybe you'll be mine (sunrise)
I don't know if it's even in your mind at all
It could be me
It should be me, it could be me
Forever
Forever
Wandering through life, will love come home to you?
And the love you want forever, will they be true to you?
Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines?
Maybe the next time I'll be yours and maybe you'll be mine (maybe mine)
I don't know if it's even in your mind at all
It could be me
At this moment in time, love's indescribable
It should be me, it could be me
Forever
Easy, ready, willing, over time
Where does it stop, where do you dare me to draw the line?
You've got the body now you want my soul
Don't even think about it, say "no-go"
(Sunrise) I don't know if it's even in your mind at all
It could be me
At this moment in time is it in your mind at all?
It should be me, it could be me
Forever
(Sunrise) at this moment in time is it in your mind at all?
It should be me, it could be me
Forever
Forever
(Sunrise)
"Sunrise" by Simply Red is a romantic love song that speaks about the power of love and the strong desire of being with someone special forever. As the lyrics suggest, the song seems to be written from a perspective of a person expressing his love and affection to his partner. The opening lines, "As I look into your eyes I see the sunrise, the light behind your face helps me realize," is symbolic of how the person's partner represents a new day or a new beginning in his life. The mention of "sunrise" in the song's title and throughout the lyrics exemplifies the optimism and positivity that love can bring into life.
The chorus of the song, "Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines, maybe the next time I'll be yours and maybe you'll be mine" implies that the relationship of the couple is not stable, and there is uncertainty about their future together. The person strongly believes that the other person is his true love, but he is not sure if the other person feels the same. The repetition of the lines, "I don't know if it's even in your mind at all, it should be me, it could be me, forever," portrays the person's vulnerability and longing for a lifelong commitment from his partner.

As I look into your eyes I see the sunrise
The light behind your face helps me realise
Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines
Maybe the next time I’ll be yours and maybe you’ll be mine
I don’t know if it’s even in your mind at all
It could be me
At this moment in time
Is it in your mind at all
It should be me, it could be me
Forever
Wandering through life will love come home to you
And the love you want forever, will they be true to you
Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines
Maybe the next time I’ll be yours and maybe you’ll be mine
I don’t know if it’s even in your mind at all
It could be me
At this moment in time
Love’s indescribable
It should be me, it could be me
Forever
