Sundown
Sally Shapiro Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hear what you say
And I don't disagree
I just can't go on pretending
it doesn't matter to me.
My road was slow every minute
until the day I found you in it
Carelessly I didn't think that you could go,
but you run to, close door.
Oh please don't go I love you, never mind
If you don't think it could ever be your time
'bout the circus thus the fountain watch the sun go down.
When I am all alone.

Underneath I can't believe I was so.
I was happy, now you're gone,
I don't even know I have want you,
but I'm pretty sure I never try to
non disparing, non...
I just wonder but you want.
Oh please don't go I love you, never mind
If you don't think it could ever be your time
'bout the circus thus the fountain watch the sun go down.
When I am all alone.




I'm.watch the sun going down.
And I'm all alone.
