Against the backdrop of untamed nature basked in warm spectral colors of endless dawn, "Sunrise" channels the torment and seduction of ever fleeting moments. Now memories in time revisited in place, he yearns for the chance to hold her again, to witness the sun's first kiss upon her face. Framed by the panorama of Kauai's enchanting beauty and profound isolation, December Fades pens his emotions into a melody that echoes the bittersweet ache of longing as he roams the picturesque landscapes pleading for one more day with her, chasing the elusive sunrise as if to recapture lost time.
