So Long, Sundown Songtext
So long, sundown
Time to turn this thing around
All the friends I′ve ever known
All like summer swifts have flown
But the light hits the stone
Of the tenements at dawn
And my heart it still fills up
It's approximately love
I′m a wreck, I'm a ruin
I'm a thread lost to the loom
Fix my tie and fix my hair
Shake me out of this despair
Grab my coat, leave my drink
Take me home, don′t let me think
I am tired of make believe
Make the sun come up for me
Those old familiar eyes
Are pulling on my heart strings
Just wait and give it time
The art of doing nothing
And you, Star of the Sea
Won′t you spare some light for me?
Still the storm and hush the wind
Say my luck is coming in
At the end of this gloom
There's a garden in full bloom
Where the Wild Mountain Thyme
Sings to sleep my little lights
Those old familiar eyes
Are pulling on my heartstrings
Too late I realise
I have all I need
So please give me a sign
A weird eclipse or something
Just wait and give it time
The art of doing nothing
The art of doing nothing
The art of doing nothing
The art of doing nothing
Time to turn this thing around
All the friends I′ve ever known
All like summer swifts have flown
But the light hits the stone
Of the tenements at dawn
And my heart it still fills up
It's approximately love
I′m a wreck, I'm a ruin
I'm a thread lost to the loom
Fix my tie and fix my hair
Shake me out of this despair
Grab my coat, leave my drink
Take me home, don′t let me think
I am tired of make believe
Make the sun come up for me
Those old familiar eyes
Are pulling on my heart strings
Just wait and give it time
The art of doing nothing
And you, Star of the Sea
Won′t you spare some light for me?
Still the storm and hush the wind
Say my luck is coming in
At the end of this gloom
There's a garden in full bloom
Where the Wild Mountain Thyme
Sings to sleep my little lights
Those old familiar eyes
Are pulling on my heartstrings
Too late I realise
I have all I need
So please give me a sign
A weird eclipse or something
Just wait and give it time
The art of doing nothing
The art of doing nothing
The art of doing nothing
The art of doing nothing
