last.fm(Video clip presents pictures of Andong internal refugee camp in Cambodia)Joseph Arthur - In The Sun 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 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 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 cant keep awake
May God's love be with you, always
May God's love be with you, always
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
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've been caught in between all I wish for and all I need
Oh, maybe you're not even sure what it's for
Any more than me
May God's love be with you, always
May God'sl ove be with you, always
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
If I find, If I find my own way
How much will I find
You?
