Show Teeth - I Caught the Sunshine Just for You lyrics

by: Reyna M. I caught the sunshine just for you All day I ran around Chasing the rays of Sun They touched every surface The metallic table, The rugged road, The newly trimmed palm tree leaves, And on every surface there was a glow that said I've been touched by sunshine I've been touched by life And even the rugged road So black and so stern Smirked a little saying “I've been touched by warmth” All throughout noon I giggled and laughed running after Her I hid ‘round corners attempting to take the sun by surprise Without success every time So I laid down Smiles in my eyes Blood flowing to my finger tips The falling and rising of my chest matching the heightened warmth of the day Thinking How was I ever going to catch the devilish giggling rays of Sun I thought about how they surprised me when I looked around the corner And how they led me on a wild chase, a child's voice laughing back at me ringing with purity urging me to run after As I thought about the sunshine− My hands interlocked, placed upon my chest, A ray of laughing light kissed me on the cheek I beckoned the ray to come sit in my hand The laughing light listened And for a second she was serene For a second she was tame And she just glowed there It was my intention to bring her back to you But as quickly as I caught her I let her go To romp like wild in the limitless sky I could not break such a pure spirit So instead of bringing you back the sunshine I bring you back this poem. And maybe someday we can chase the sunshine together And instead of looking at the rays of sun Perhaps I can look into your vibrant eyes And see that same pure spirit mixing with my limitless heart
