Sunlight
Tyler Kyte Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'm alive in every way
In time again
I see the light has gone away
I'm picking up
What's left behind from yesterday
And I'm standing on the road
And through all this chaos
I can sleep and drift at you
Well you may not think it
But I'm telling you its true
Ohh this only moment
I can see what I'm to do
I'll just write the only words
That mean the most to you
I'm telling you that
Oh, oh I need you
Oh, oh I'm in love with you
You're my sunlight
You're my sunlight
Well I live and die
And I'm alive in every way
In time again
I see the light has gone away
Oh this only moment
I can see what I'm to do
I'll just write the only words
That mean the most to you
And I'm telling you that
Oh, oh I need you
Oh, no I'm in love with you
I'm telling you that
Oh, no I need you
Oh, no, no, no
I'm so in love with you
You're my sunlight
You're my sunlight
You're my sunlight
That I hold in my heart
When it's two in the morning
When it's cold
When it's dark
You're my sunlight
Tyler Kyte's song Sunlight sounds like a love song. The singer talks about how he can only see what he's supposed to do in this one moment, and that is to write the only words that mean the most to the person he loves. He uses the metaphor of sunlight, saying that the person he loves is his sunlight that he holds in his heart, especially during the dark and cold times.
The first verse can be interpreted as the singer being aware of the fragility and unpredictability of life. He knows that he can live and die, and that he's alive in every way. He also acknowledges that time goes by quickly; the light that he used to see has gone away. He's picking up what's left behind from yesterday, and he's standing on the road that they could never take. This suggests that he's trying to move on from past mistakes and look forward to the future with this person who means everything to him.
In the second verse, the singer assures the person that he loves that he needs them, that he's in love with them, and that they are his sunlight. He holds this person in his heart during the dark and cold moments, and they keep him going through anything.
Overall, the song is about finding someone who brings light into your life and makes everything better. It's about recognizing the importance of this person and holding onto them through thick and thin.

Well I live and die
I exist and will eventually pass on
And I'm alive in every way
I am living my life to the fullest extent possible
In time again
As time passes again
I see the light has gone away
I am experiencing a time of darkness or difficulty
I'm picking up
I am gathering
What's left behind from yesterday
The remnants of the past
And I'm standing on the road
I am positioned on the path of my life
That they could never take
That nobody can steer me away from
And through all this chaos
Despite everything that is happening that I can't control
I can sleep and drift at you
I find peace and comfort in thoughts of you
Well you may not think it
You might not realize it
But I'm telling you its true
But it's a fact
Ohh this only moment
This exact time
I can see what I'm to do
I know my purpose
I'll just write the only words
I'll express myself
That mean the most to you
That convey how much I care for you
I'm telling you that
I assure you
Oh, oh I need you
I am dependent on you
Oh, oh I'm in love with you
I am madly in love with you
You're my sunlight
You bring light and happiness into my life
That I hold in my heart
That I cherish deeply
When it's two in the morning
When it's late at night
When it's cold
When life isn't going well
When it's dark
When I'm feeling sad or alone
