about

Walking In The Sun is the lead single from Julia Deans’ upcoming sophomore solo album, We Light Fire.

lyrics

you took the hand
took the hand
took the hand you gave her
you pushed the heart
felt the ground swell under your feet

you locked the room
locked the room
built a crystal border
told her it was good
it was good
it was under good advice

you were only having fun
maintaining the lie

we could be walking in the sun
could take a shot for the moon
when we reach for the heavens end
we could be happy again
we should be walking in the sun

you're overrun
overrun
is the line you're taking
you lose control if you don't sweep
her off her feet

it's not a plan
not a plan
just a flawed persistence
keep her underground
underground
underneath your broken thumb

that's how it's always done
you walk in his shoes
like father hands to son
inherit the lie

we could be walking in the sun
could take a shot for the moon
and when you reach for the heavens end
we could be happy again

we should be walking in the sun
take a shot for the moon
and when you reach for the stars my friend
we could be happy again
when we walk in the sun
take a shot for the moon

we could be happy again
we should be walking in the sun
