Frankie Miller - I Know Why the Sun Don't Shine

Every morning when the sun is so low
Sit there thinkin' watching the river flow
You ask yourself how can a flower grow
When all you feel is the cold wind blow

Lift your head see the birds in the sky
To be so free just lift your wings and fly
To be so low ain't the way it should be
She took the choice -we parted company

I know why
I know why the sun don't shine
Girl, you turned around and left me
For them big bright city lights

Packed your bag and went on over the hill
You never stopped to think
How it would make me feel
Come back and say that your sky is grey
And your heart is blue
You never understood what it takes to be true

I know why
I know why the sun don't shine
Girl you turned around and left me
For them big bright city lights

Go on, go on baby do what your gonna do
You'll break a dozen hearts before you're thru
Aint no use saying your sky is grey
And your heart is blue
Enverything's gone - everything we ever knew

I know why
I know why the sun don't shine
Girl, you turned around and left me
For them big bright city lights
