The Setting Sun (Acoustic Version)

The Setting Sun

Written by Michael Brandmeier, John Calarco & Dan Lavery

Verse 1

Here we are tonight

Together as one

Eyes on the skyline

It’s so good you could come be a part of a moment

But hold on tight yea

Before it slips away

All these seconds of our life

Hang like pictures in our minds

Disappearing one by one

Chorus 1

Like the setting sun

Verse 2:

So let’s celebrate

Not the future or the past

The ones that got away

Or the ones the within our grasp

For we’re always going to have

Battles lost and battles won

Chorus 2

And another setting sun…

(Ooh’s)

Bridge

There’s something about the colors

As they soar across the sky

Something about it, hits me down deep inside

There’s something about the feeling when the last burst

Of day-turns-to-night. . .

Right before our eyes

Verse 3

Is it the end of the day?

Or the start of the night?

Just a memory made?

We don’t need to decide

If we’ve lost or if we’ve won

Here’s to us

Chorus 3

And the setting sun….

Ending Vamp

Yea, we raise our glasses high

To the simple things in life

Like the colors in the sky

Of the setting sun

Yea we raise our glasses high

To the love we feel inside

And the beauty in the sky

Of the setting sun…
