Sunsets...

Sunsets...

I don't know,
 Where time goes.

No.

I don't know,
 Where time goes.

Sometimes I stare into the setting sun.
That's when the beauty and melancholy come.

All these years,
I remember.

I remember it all,
The way it was with you.

I don't know,
 Where time goes.

No.

I don't know,
 Where time goes.

Sometimes I stare into the setting sun.
That's when the beauty and melancholy come.

Say so long,
Say so long,
To so long ago.

The memories I carry,
So brief and ephemeral,
Like morning dew.

There's nothing you'll ever get back.

It's always,
Always too soon,
When sunsets come.

I don't know,
 Where time goes.

No.

I don't know,
 Where time goes.

Sometimes I stare into the setting sun.
That's when the beauty and melancholy come.
