Story behind the song
The song is a story, set the morning after a night out with a best friend. Anything that happens in the morning is in present tense, and anything that happened the night before, past. As for the line, "Eyes like the sun/we set in the morninglight" is saying that, "Even though neither of us are tired, and even though it's morning, we didn't get any sleep last night, and we should maybe attempt at an hour or two." Any confusion brought on by the lyrics is intentional. I like things enigmatic; it creates conversation pieces.
Lyrics
Eyes like the sun We set in the morning light I’m next to you Dreaming in hues And I remember the way we screamed The way we laughed we made tears obsolete If you don’t forget this night, you’ll never forget me Our eyes were wide As we drank in the moonlight Rest was an option A choice we could not make And I remember everything The lights on the screen And the words that surrounded us Shrouded us, astounded us Stand outside with me And let’s dream wide awake Stand beside me And let’s sing the notes that we can’t hit Let’s be Everything we can’t be Eyes like the sun We set in the morning light And we thrive in the night Our eyes were wide As we drank in the moonlight And we sleep in the daytime
