Time for the Sun to Rise - North Mississippi All Stars

Sunrise, why must you go so soon?

Sunrise, you don’t soothe me like the moon

Last night as I lie sleeping I had a dream of a place untold

Where you never see people weeping

There’s no war or greed for gold

It’s a place where love can unfold

But by the time my dream is in drive, it’s time for that old sun to rise

Sunrise, always catch me by surprise

Sunrise, on the horizon beneath the sky

I’m always returning to Loveland

It’s a name I heard some fella say

It was there I found me a lovin' hand

But each time I just couldn’t stay

And that lady I met fades away

By the time I find my prize, it’s time for the sun to rise

Sunrise, sunrise

I’m always returning to reality from a place of love and peace

There is one thing for sure that ain’t no fantasy

Is the place I want to be

And my girl waits there for me

By the time I find my prize, it’s time for the sun to rise

Sunrise, sunrise
