A Sun Shines Forever​/​Chunk in the Trunk

from Norman by Bradley Herr

/

lyrics

I keep a bottle in the cabinet
Even though I don't really drink
You never know who might call
Who might stop in
Who might drop out
Who might need a hit

It's a black label Johnnie
It reminds me of a friend of mine
She says black's her favorite color cause she likes the way it feels around her
Maybe just because
And when she hit a hard time it reminded her of sunshine

I know, she said, it makes no sense but Sunshine's just the blanket we pull over when we're hiding from the stars

She said just cause you can't see them doesn't mean that they stop shining.

I said oh so they're just waiting for the sun to go away.
She said no, they know their sister, they're just giving her some space

Besides, she said, it doesn't ever really go away,
It goes to give somebody else the light they need that day
And when it's back it only trades your stars for day


She said a sun shines forever, not only when you see it
And even when you can't, it's never gone

I keep a {?} in the closet
Even though I don't believe it
Because you never know when someone else might come and need it.
