Rising Sun
Sunrise Avenue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look at the rising sun
Look at the game we're in everyone
Heaven is open for us tonight
Look at the road behind
Look at the miles we've walked, you and I
Heaven is open for us again

And it takes you and me inside its arms
It takes you and me

You by my side I can shine
I'm complete, I'm divine
You next to me I believe
We can make it 'til the end

Look at the road ahead
Look at the nights and days we will share
Under the sunny and the rainy skies
Look into my eyes
My heart is beating for you tonight
Heaven is open for us tonight

And it takes you and me inside its arms
It takes you and me

You by my side I can shine
I'm complete, I'm divine
You next to me I believe
We can make it 'til the end
We can make it all the way




We can make it there
We can make it 'til the end
