Lyrics

Sunset on sunset
Blinded by twilight in your eyes
Sunset on sunset
Watching your daydreams, fade and die
Too many lonely nights
Among the city lights
That you’re shakin
Too many empty starts
Too many tempted your heart
Was that aching
Now you’re breaking
Just like the sun on the heat
But now you’ve hurt yourself so bad
That no one else ever will
Lying beside you
Someone you think you’ve met last night
Lying beside you
Something you’ve known was never right
When you were young last year
You didn’t know that fear would surround you
You are a moving queen, and not some sweet 16
When they’ve bowed for you, all around you
They’ve tried to tear you apart
And now the easy way out for you is gonna be so hard
I always thought my love would help you
Maybe I’ve fallen to live
Back in the fallen stars of night oh dear
You’ve finally had enough
Of coming down so rough
When you’re flying
You think you’ve seen the end
Of something cool and friendly
And I’m dying, but you’re crying
You’ve left yourself out again
Your only locking the door so good
That I can’t get in
Sunset on sunset
Sunset on sunset
Your life around you
Sunset on sunset
Only time can save you
