Story Behind The Song

I read 'Lightlark' by Alex Aster and the main male character Oro inspired this sort of man that was like the sun. Someone who is kind, caring, and understanding. And how falling in love with that kind of man can be scary because what if he doesn't feel the same way back? So you want to protect yourself from getting hurt, hence the sunscreen since he is the sun.

Song Description

Lyrics describe the fear of unrequited love. Music includes sound effects of a camcorder. Cute, lighthearted, metaphorical, doubtful, and lovable.

Lyrics

Does the sun follow you
Or are you the sun itself
Cause I want to tell the truth
But I have no facts, just
How I felt
I first thought you won't choose
Someone less than perfection
But that was
All a ruse to redirect my affection
And I wonder
Oh I wonder
How this looks from your view
Cause it's summer
And now everything revolves around you

Cause your light is seeping into
Every daydream
Now I'm thinking I need a
Stronger sunscreen
And the heat is nice
Will it one day burn
After sometime will
I regret these words
Now I'm thinking
I need a
Stronger
Sunscreen, ya

I blame me, I fell fast
Just one smile and I was yours
You weren't in the forecast
I only prepared for storms
Here's a question
Just one question
Am I something you want
Your affection
Can you tell me if it's real or not

Cause your light is seeping into
Every daydream
Now I'm thinking I need a
Stronger sunscreen
And the heat is nice
Will it one day burn
After sometime will
I regret these words
Now I'm thinking
I need a
Stronger
Sunscreen, ya

Thinking I'll need more than
SPF 100
You're pretty close to perfect
Cause you're all I ever wanted

Cause your light is seeping into
Every daydream
Now I'm thinking I need a
Stronger sunscreen
And the heat is nice
Will it one day burn
After sometime will
I regret these words
Now I'm thinking
I need a
Stronger
Sunscreen
