The sun is setting down across the road again
A mournful parting friend moving on
Night falls quickly
Silently insisting
That what's gone is done and done has gone all wrong
Gone all wrong
Don't talk about love and chains
And let's not talk about the plans we made
Why don't we just sit and watch the sunlight fade
You and I we pretend
That the world will keep on turning
And that we'll have time to spend
Why do we pretend
Cracked white ceiling staring disbelieving
While you lie asleep a smile on your lips steal a kiss
Soon tomorrow
We'll be having coffee
Just to keep ourselves from fading like the heat
Fades to fall
Don't talk about love and chains
And let's not talk about the plans we made
Why don't we just sit and watch the sunlight fade
You and I we pretend
That the world will keep on turning
And that we'll have time to spend
Why do we pretend
Oh, don't talk about love and chains
And let's not talk about the plans we made
Why don't we just sit and watch the sunlight fade
You and I we pretend
That the world will keep on turning and that we'll have time to spend
Why do we pretend
The sun is setting down across the road again
A mournful parting friend moving on
