Horizon
Compact Disco Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Outside the blue's breaking the dark, and the summer night is done.
You mesmerize me when your eyes are sparkling back the Sun.

I'm watching you carry a summer dress to the break of day,
I think the dawn and you are so beautiful, beautiful.

Chorus:
Sunshine, sunshine baby...
Sunshine, sunshine baby...

I see a goose passing the park; and everything is so calm,
You lie down to gaze at the skies and watch the rising Sun.





I'm next to you, holding your summer dress by the lake we stay,
I think the dawn and you are so beautiful, beautiful.
