Em                B7      Bm7      E
Sunlight and the city     is barely awake 
            Am            C7M              Em
As all the early morning drifters make their way 
Em                 B7    Bm7                E
Headlights in the distance  too bright for my eyes 
                  Am               C7M
Still I love the dusk, the dawn, between times 
          Em         E
They are mine 


                     C        D     G  
?Cos you can't tell if it's day or night 
            C       D        G  
Do we see the moon or the sunlight? 
G                     C     D    Em
Everything around is so transitional 
       C       D     Em     E
Momentary lapse of rational 
E                Am             Em
Walking past the writing on the wall 
           Am      Em
Something apocalyptic 
             Am           Em
Then a momentary lapse of faith 
           Am              Em        E
Before I become more optimistic 

            C     D      G
Like a momentary loss of sight 
           C       D          G
Fleetingly it went so wrong from right 
G                     C         D        Em
In a second it can change from night to day 
G           C        D       G
Any second love can turn to hate 



Sunlight and the city is barely awake 
As all the seconds in our lifetime drift away 
So live every moment and hold me so tight 
A second changes day to night 

I had a momentary loss of sight 
Fleetingly it went so wrong from right 
In a second you would change your point of view 
In my hesitation I lost you 

It only takes a moment sometimes 
The difference between joy and pain 
In a second you can look away 
Turn around to find it's all changed 

Because you can't tell if it's day or night 
Do we see the moon or the sunlight? 
Everything around is so transitional 
Momentary loss of rational 

Like a momentary loss of sight 
Fleetingly it went from dark to light 
In a second it can change from night to day 
But in a moment hope will find the way
