Chorus 1

Crack the shutters open wide

I wanna bathe you in the light of day

And just watch you as the rays

Tangle up around your face and body

I could sit for hours

Finding new ways to be awed each minute

'Cause the daylight seems to want you

Just as much as I want you

Are mapped by my intrepid fingers

And in a naked slumber
