Under the Sun
Michael Weatherly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A message to you is the last thing I do before I
Put out the light
You let go completley, I found myself deeply in love
Oh what a sight
I let my eyes on these endless horizones and fear
fell apart
I was allowed, to take down the crowd
that had surrounded my heart
I was under the sun
Under the sun

Next thing I knew all this time came and flew right on through
My open arms
I lost my way, willing day after day leaning back
On shadowed charms.
Rushing back home like some love sick dope
crushing on a childhood girlfriend
A gambling bafoon at the back of the room
wait for chance, to begin
I was under the sun
Under the sun
Under the sun

You can't control it
know it or hold it
life just keeps going on
Where and whenever
now and forever
we're here and then your gone
I was under the sun
Under the sun
Under the sun





The last thing I do is send a mesage to you if I
had the time...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Michael Weatherly's song Under The Sun describe a journey of self-discovery and growth in love. The singer addresses an unknown listener, telling them that sending them a message is the last thing they do before going to bed. The listener, it is implied, has helped the singer grow and experience the world more deeply. The singer found themselves "deeply in love" as a result of the listener's influence, and fears that had previously held them back fell apart. They were able to "take down the crowd that had surrounded [their] heart", implying that the listener gave them the courage to be more vulnerable and open.


As time passed, however, the singer lost their way, becoming "willing day after day leaning back on shadowed charms". They describe themselves as a "love-sick dope", possibly referring to a past or current relationship that they are struggling with. The final verse reflects on the impermanence of life, with the singer acknowledging that they cannot control or hold onto anything. Throughout the song, the repeated refrain of being "under the sun" reflects on the universality of human experience, and the idea that we are all subject to the same trials and tribulations.

If McGee would have found out about DiNozzo's singing career it would probably have been even funnier than DiNozzo finding out about McGee's Book
