Sunset Song

Sunset Song

(album: Sweet Warrior - 2007)

With you or without you, love
I must be moving
Never meant to linger here so long
With you or without you
Though it breaks my heart
To hear the sunset song

Wasn't that a time we had
And bless you for it
But I'm a stranger here, I don't belong
The band's down on the jetty
If you cup your ear
You'll hear the sunset song

You said, if I hold my breath
Dive down deep enough
I might grow fins
Seems to me I've held my breath
Held my breath to please you
Ever since

Early morning, that's the time
For fare-thee-wells
Slip out of the warm sheets and gone
But I want to hear it as I walk along
Hear the sunset song

In your waking, in your dreams
I won't be martyred
On that cross where some say
I belong
Opinions are coffins, I'll just trust my feet
To find the sunset song

Every day I'll wear your memory
Like a favourite shirt upon my back
In the hallway, there's my suitcase
By the door, I never did unpack

With you or without you, love
I must be moving
Never meant to linger here so long
With you or without you
Though it breaks my heart
To hear the sunset song
