Sunlight
Diana Vickers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And all the tears flow,
When there is no-one,
Nothing by your side.
Where do the dreams go,
When we're not sleeping,
Is there a world outside,
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes,
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes.
When all the stars fall,
Out of the night sky,
Fall like an angel,
Into these arms of mine.
Give me a song to sing,
And I'll give you everything,
I'll give everything I know,
I know.
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes,
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes,
After the clouds have gone,
When all the lights shine on,
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes.
With the sunlight.
If someone's looking out for me,
If someone's listening to me,
If someone's looking.
Give me a song to sing,
And I'll give you everything,
I'll give you everything I know,
I know.
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes,
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes,
Give me a song to sing,
And I'll give you everything,
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes,
With the sunlight in my eyes.
The lyrics to Diana Vickers's song Sunlight (Adventure Club Remix) describe the yearning for hope and positivity in the midst of sadness and despair. The singer expresses her desire to wake up to the beauty and warmth of the sun, symbolizing a new beginning and a chance to start afresh. She questions where our dreams go when we're not sleeping, suggesting that they may be lost or forgotten in the struggles of daily life.
As the night sky fades into morning, the singer hopes for someone to look out for her and listen to her, offering a sense of comfort and support. She believes that music has the power to bring people together and heal the soul, declaring that she will give everything she knows if given a song to sing. The repetition of the phrase "I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes" reiterates her longing for a brighter tomorrow.
The overall message of the song is one of hope and optimism in the face of adversity. It encourages listeners to hold on to their dreams, believe in themselves, and stay positive even in the darkest of times.

After the day goes,
When the day comes to an end
And all the tears flow,
And the sadness overflows
When there is no-one,
When there's no one to turn to
Nothing by your side.
And loneliness is your only companion
Where do the dreams go,
Where do dreams go when we're awake
When we're not sleeping,
When we're living our daily lives
Is there a world outside,
Is there a better life beyond our reality
That's waiting just for us.
That we could reach if we dare to dream
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes,
I want to start every day with a bright and optimistic outlook
When all the stars fall,
When everything seems to be falling apart
Out of the night sky,
During the darkest of times
Fall like an angel,
Something beautiful emerges
Into these arms of mine.
And I feel hopeful and loved
Give me a song to sing,
Give me a reason to be happy
And I'll give you everything,
And I'll do my best to show appreciation
I'll give everything I know,
I'll do everything I can to give back
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes,
I want to see the world in a positive light
After the clouds have gone,
After the dark clouds of sadness have disappeared
When all the lights shine on,
When everything around me is beautiful
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes.
I want to embrace the beauty of the world
With the sunlight.
And share my joy with others
If someone's looking out for me,
If someone cares about me
If someone's listening to me,
If someone hears me when I speak
If someone's looking.
If someone watches over me
Give me a song to sing,
Give me a reason to be happy
And I'll give you everything,
And I'll do my best to show appreciation
I'll give you everything I know,
I'll do everything I can to give back
I wanna wake up with the sunlight in my eyes,
I want to see the world in a positive light
With the sunlight in my eyes.
And share my joy with others
