Bring Us the Sun
Ben Cocks Lyrics

The lyrics to Ben Cocks's song "Bring Us the Sun" speak directly to the role of weather in one's life, particularly in regard to love. The song opens with a plea to "take back your weather" and "bring me the skies," indicating a desire for clear and bright weather. The singer notes that the day is so bright that they cannot open their eyes, and suggests that days like this are where they found love. The chorus further emphasizes this sentiment, with the singer asking the "Mr. weatherman" to bring them the sun.

The second verse provides a bit more insight into the singer's perspective on love. The singer notes that time will be the ultimate determinant of their feelings, but they profess to be deeply and hopelessly in love, challenging anyone to call their bluff. The final lines of the song connect love to the sun once more, with the singer discussing the glistening sun on the river and their desire to stay out until the sun sets, allowing for a romantic walk home in the shadows.

Overall, this song uses the metaphor of weather and the sun to explore the relationship between love and the outside world. The singer indicates a desire for clear and bright weather as a symbol of their own love, and connects the setting sun with the eventual end of the day and their own journey home with their loved one.
