As the Sun Goes Down

As the sun goes down We whisper softly to each other At the time of twilight Is when we find it the hardest In a meadow at the top of a hill We hold together, hand in hand We’ll paint the sublime picture The one of life together Together forever inside our never, never We’ll always be there together I’ll await you for your arrival As of now, I know it’s near We’ll seek each other For without we’ll be de-feathered While I wait alone, at the steps of were we first met Here and now, I look for your bliss At the time of sunset as the shadows dance They show me worlds for me to glance I see a world of twilight and frown While I wait here, as the sun goes down As the sun goes down I sit alone in my room and write, To you letters and poems of my disgrace I tell you all my secrets so that they’ll die with you today Please keep them as I rise alone To face each day outside your heart While I stare from the outside Knowing I’ll never be part of the inside So I fall down and go on in a happy frown For each night I wait, as the sun goes down
