Now the Sun is Out
Greg Johnson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stood on a step with the same two feet as before
You think you can walk away from love
You?re dreaming about living in a place of your own
Very fast car on a very long road
A smile from you
A hug that leaves no doubt
Now the sun is out, it's warming up between us
We've got to keep the faith so the love can never leave us
Sweet lover well you know what I like
Don't stop ?cause it's going to be all right
We?re not friends if you don?t have time it?s like
Johnny Cash and the ties that bind
If you think you?ll never walk the line you?re dreaming
You?re dreaming about living in a tree-lined street
Kicking up leaves with the same two feet as before
You don't want to be lonely anymore
Now the sun is out, it?s warming up between us
We've got to keep the faith so the love can never leave us
Sweet lover well you know what I like
Don't stop ?cause it's going to be all right
Stick with me tonight
It?s going to be all right
It?s going to be all right
It?s going to be all right
Been walking down a concert street
I stood on a step with the same two feet as before
You think you can walk away from love
Now the sun is out, it?s warming up between us
We've got to keep the faith so the love can never leave us
Sweet lover well you know what I like
Don't stop it cause it's going to be all right
It?s going to be all right
Now the sun is out, it?s warming up between us
We've got to keep the faith so the love can never leave us
Sweet lover well you know what I like
Don't stop it cause it's going to be all right
If you stick with me tonight
If you stick with me tonight
It?s going to be all right
The song "Now the Sun is Out" by Greg Johnson is about the power of love and the importance of perseverance in a relationship. The first stanza suggests that the singer has been walking down the same road, feeling stuck and inefficient in his life. He suggests that love can be a source of motivation and change, and you can't just walk away from it. The second stanza is about dreaming of being in a better place in life, possibly owning a house or driving a car. The singer describes the feeling of being in love as something that makes life's journey more enjoyable. In the chorus, the singer emphasizes the importance of holding on to a relationship and being faithful to love, especially when the sun is shining and things seem to be going well. The final stanza repeats the first stanza, suggesting that even when things are tough, love can be a source of stability.
Johnson's use of metaphors such as the "concrete street" and the "long road" suggest a metaphor for life, while "the sun being out" is used as a symbol of good times in a relationship. The song ends with a call for commitment and faith in a relationship, with the singer urging his partner to stick with him through tough times.

One day I walked into the living room and my sister was watching 50 pills, I caught just a bit of the song and I literally forced her to rewind the movie so that I could listen to the song all the way through. I then spent every minute of three hours looking for it. That was about a year ago and I have literally listened to this song at least once a week ever since. It is one of my all time favorite songs and always will be. It just make me feel good. Thank you for this masterpiece :)

I was watching 800 Words last night, Season 2 Episode 1...same thing - this song hit perfectly there too!! Killer song here! (Check out I See the Sun by Tommy Henriksen for a similar feel good tune - used superbly in the movie Blast from the Past.)
