Days in the Sun

We saw Beauty and the Beast this weekend at the new Emagine Theater where Country Market used to be (you would love the theater, by the way). This song was in it and it made me cry. (I don't think this song was in the cartoon version of the movie).The beast's mom died when he was young and this song showed him standing by her bed after she died and then went on from there. Here it is.

 

Days in the Sun

by Adam Mitchell

 

 

Days in the sun

When my life has barely begun

Not until my whole life is done

Will I ever leave you

 

Will I tremble again

To my dear one's gorgeous refrain

Will you now forever remain
Out of reach of my arms

 

All those days in the sun

What I'd give to relive just one

Undo what's done

And bring back the light

 

Oh, I could sing of the pain these dark days bring

The spell we're under

Still it's the wonder of us I sing of tonight

 

How in the midst of all this sorrow

Can so much hope and love endure

I was innocent and certain

Now I'm wiser but unsure

 

(Days in the past)

I can't go back into my childhood

(All those precious days)

That my father made secure

I can feel a change in me

I'm stronger now but still not free

 

Days in the sun

Will return, we must believe

As lovers do

That days in the sun will come shining through
