Sun Came Up
Sofi Tukker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(You and I dancing then)
(You and I dancing then)
(You and I dance)

Suddenly my eyes are seeing you clearly
I think I'm nearly back where we were
When the sun came up, and we're still dancing together
The water was still, and the people were sleeping
You and I dancing to the sound of their breathing
When the sun came up, we were still dancing together

(You and I dancing then, you and I dancing then)
(You and I dancing then, you and I dancing then)
(You and I dancing then, you and I dancing then)
(You and I dancing then, you and I dancing then)
(You and I dancing then)
(You and I dancing then, when you and I dance)
When the sun came up

Suddenly my eyes are seeing you clearly
I think I'm nearly back where we were
When the sun came up, and we're still dancing together

The water was still, and the people were sleeping
You and I dancing to the sound of their breathing
When the sun came up, we were still dancing together

(You and I dancing then, you and I dancing then)
(You and I dancing to the sound of their breathing then)
(You and I dancing then, you and I dancing then)
(And you and I dancing to the sound of their breathing)
(You and I dancing then, you and I dancing then)
(And you and I dancing to the sound of their breathing)

(You and I dancing then, You and I dancing)
When the sun came up

Suddenly my eyes are seeing you clearly
I think I'm nearly back where we were
When the sun came up, and we're still dancing together

The water was still, and the people were sleeping




You and I dancing to the sound of their breathing
When the sun came up, we were still dancing together

Line by Line Meaning

You and I dancing then
The two of us were dancing at that time


Suddenly my eyes are seeing you clearly
I am able to see you clearly all of a sudden


I think I'm nearly back where we were
It seems like we are almost back where we started


When the sun came up, and we're still dancing together
Even as the sun rose, we were still dancing together


The water was still, and the people were sleeping
The water was calm and everyone else was asleep


You and I dancing to the sound of their breathing
We were dancing while listening to the sound of their breathing


You and I dancing to the sound of their breathing then
At that time, we were dancing while listening to the sound of their breathing


And you and I dancing to the sound of their breathing
We were also dancing while listening to the sound of their breathing


You and I dancing then, You and I dancing
We were dancing at that time, and we continue to dance


When the sun came up
When the sun rose
