Schiller Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
the night is long
the night is long
will we be lost in only darkness
from now on
from now on
how will i find you
before the night is through
and you will see
the sun will rise
the sun will rise
the sun will rise my love
the sun will rise
the sun will rise
the sun will rise my love
before the dawn and after sunset
i am lost
i am lost
but then i feel you through
the darkness
and i am found
oh i am found
the sun will rise
the sun will rise
the sun will rise my love
the sun will rise
the sun will rise
the sun will rise my love
The lyrics of Schiller's song "Sunrise" describe a feeling of being lost and in darkness, both physically and emotionally. The night is long, and there is uncertainty about whether the darkness will consume them forever. The singer offers a plea to their loved one to stay with them, promising them that the sun will rise and bring light to their lives once again. Through their love, they are found and brought into the light.
The lyrics' message is one of hope and the power of love to bring us out of darkness. The song's title, "Sunrise," is a symbol of new beginnings, the start of a new day, and the hope of a brighter future. The use of "my love" further emphasizes the theme of love's power to bring light and hope to our lives.
Overall, Schiller's "Sunrise" is a beautiful and poetic song that speaks to the human experience of feeling lost and in darkness, while also offering a message of hope and the promise of a brighter future through love.
