The Setting Sun

There were times I could always tell —
Your every mood, your every worry
Now you’re just a book on my shelve
No more pages to turn
So why did I keep on holding on?
I never knew —
If I could do better…
I’ve had thoughts of just letting go
But how should I know?
Your cries always break my stride
But I’m afraid to let you fall
And how should I know?
You say when I’m not around
That all the passion will be gone
Like the Setting Sun
We close the day when nights begun
Like the Setting Sun
We know when all’s been said and done
Let us brush aside our fears
With a smile I can stop the tears
For just awhile to let the wounds heal
Did you ever stop to think how I feel?
Yes it hurts to be mistaken
Your cries always break my stride
But I’m afraid to let you fall
How should I know?
You say when I’m not around
That all the passion will be gone
Like the Setting Sun
We close the day when nights begun
Like the Setting Sun
We know when all’s been said and done
Let us brush aside our fears
Does it make you wonder?
Does it make you wonder?
Like the Setting Sun
We close the day when nights begun
Like the Setting Sun
We know when all’s been said and done
Let us brush aside our fears
Like the Setting Sun
Oh, I want to be close to you
Put an end to all our fears
