I light a candle in the morning to signify that your still on my mind
Darkness arrived without a warning
It brought me down, but I know the world just keeps on turning
I wish that I could turn you on
Like a switch in my kitchen right before dawn
88 days seems so long
I believe in you and me but it's so hard to trust
And you just can't see, still I've got

88 days till the Sun and while you're gone
I've got so much work inside my heart to be done
I've got 88 days till the Sun
I've got to get my spirit ready for when the springtime comes
88 days till the Sun

Zip-up my thickest jacket
I miss the green and the light you gave to me
Prepare to get my feet wet
Halogens on bright when 2 PM is like 2 in the night, it ain't right
So, what's the message in this song
That the pain doesn't mean that you can't just carry on
Still 88 days seem so long
A meditation, a revelation
But it's so hard to trust
Something you just can't see, still I've got

88 days till the Sun and while you're gone
I've got so much work inside my heart to be done
I've got 88 days till the Sun
I've got to get my spirit ready for when the springtime comes
88 days till the Sun

88 days till the Sun comes around
(You got work, you got work, you got work to be done)
88 days till the Sun comes around
(You got work, you got work, you got work to be done)
A meditation, a revelation
But it's so hard to trust
Something you just can't see, I've got

I've got 88 days, 88 days
(You got work, you got work, you got work to be done)
I've got work, I've got work, I've got work to be done
(88 days till the Sun)
88 days
Got to get my spirit ready for the springtime
Still, I've got
(88 days till the Sun)
Till the springtime
(You got work, you got work, you got work to be done)
88 days till the springtime
