Brilliant song

*Update - I have just been corrected that Joseph Arthur wrote In the Sun and not Michael Stipe (who still is a musical genius despite not having written this song)

Michael Stipe (musical genius) wrote a beautiful, beautiful song called In The Sun. ST put it on a cd for me and it took me listening to it a few times before I really got how absolutely great it is. The lyrics to it just kill me, I love them so. There's a line where he sings.. "When you showed me myself, I became somebody else" that for some reason slays me every time I hear it. I guess because of this whole journey that I have been on, really taking a look at my life and what I don't like about it and changing myself to achieve what I do want. I would love to be able to post a link to the song but I haven't a clue how to do that.

Turns out, I learned. You can listen to it here.
And here are the lyrics.

I picture you in the sun
wondering what went wrong
And falling down on your knees
asking for sympathy
And being caught in between
all you wish for and all you've seen

And trying to find anything you can feel
that you can believe in
May god’s love be with you always
May god’s love be with you

I know I would apologize
if I could see in your eyes
cause when you showed me myself
You know, I became someone else
But I was caught in between all you wish for and all you need

I picture you fast asleep
A nightmare comes
You can’t keep awake
May god’s love be with you always
May god’s love be with you

’cause if I find
If I find my own way
How much will I find
If I find
If I find my own way
How much will I find you

I don’t know anymore
What it’s for
I’m not even sure
If there is anyone who is in the sun
Will you help me to understand
cause I been caught in between all you wish for and all you need
Maybe you’re not even sure what it’s for
any more than me

May god’s love be with you always
May god’s love be with you always
