[Verse 1] Tina lies on the ground She lies there forever She likes the sun Tina knows the devil
[Verse 2] Tina loves the violence Of living in the country She likes that it's So far from me
[Verse 3: The National & Sharon Van Etten] Tina has her story down I really thought I knew it And it changed around When I was almost through it
[Refrain] Sunshine on my back is the only kind I like Sunshine in my brain is the lonely kind of pain It's the sunshine of a lonely mind
[Bridge: The National & Sharon Van Etten] She says 'After today then there's nothing you owe me' And I'm so glad that you came, I needed someone who loves me But just don't try to talk yourself into this love And sleep like a baby while I'm staying up It's as much what you say, as it is what you don't You can't try to stay you either will or you won't
[Refrain] Sunshine on my back is the only kind I like Sunshine in my brain is the lonely kind of pain It's the sunshine of a lonely mind
