Emilíana Torrini - Sunny Road Wrote you this I hope you got it safe It's been so long I don't know what to say I traveled 'round Through deserts on my horse But jokes aside I want to come back home You know that night I said I had to go You said you'd meet me On the sunny road It's time, meet me on the sunny road It's time, meet me on the sunny road I never married Never had those kids I loved too many Now heaven's closed its gates I know I'm bad To jump on you like this Some things don't change My middle name's still 'Risk' I know that night Its a long long time ago Will you still meet me On the sunny road It's time, meet me on the sunny road It's time, meet me on the sunny road Well, this is it I'm running out of space Here is my address And number just in case This time as one We'll find which way to go Now come and meet me On the sunny road
I want to say take me back to this time, but in 1999 I was 14 in high school in London having a crappy time lol. Fast forward to 2004 though and I was unemployed in London turning 21 in the summertime and it was such an adventure. And now this year I’m turning 40, doesn’t make sense really. But songs like this stay frozen in time and that’s just magical x
for me this song is like a lullalaby. My parents, especially my father played this song for all my childhood when I had to sleep. Sadly, now that I'm an adult I understand the meaning of this song. I also realized that I lost the innocence from childhood. Now I come here when I miss my childhood’s parents.
