Lyrics
When the sun comes up in Tucson
It is twelve o' clock in Berlin
When the English stop for tea
It is time for bed in Beijing
When it's dark in California
Philadelphians are off to school
When the familes eat in Bogota
The families eat in Kalmazoo
{Chorus}
I am glad to know I've found you
Amid parades, weddings, baptisms, and funerals
But if you can't see the lovely things that move around you
We may never see the sun come up at all
It's quite alright to go to church
But you won't pray on a sand dune
We don't need to understand the words
To sing along with a strange tune
{Chorus}
I am glad to know I've found you
Amid parades, weddings, baptisms, and funerals
But if you can't see the lovely things that move around you
We may never see the sun come up at all
Birds in China, violins, or galaxies
Come on, show me something curious about you
Egypt, France, or romance, baby inspire me or my world will go on spining without you
When the sun comes up in Tucson
There are Eskimos in deep sleep
When the whistle blows in Taiwain
I'm trying to get you up on your feet
{Chorus}
I am glad to know I've found you
Amid parades, weddings, baptisms, and funerals
But if you can't see the lovely things that move around you
We may never see the sun come up at all
