Passenger

Setting Suns

Well, I walked out this evening

Stood out in front of my house

To see the day that I'm leaving

My eyes have pointed South

I felt like I was dreaming,

I never seen the sky so red

Gave me strangest feeling,

A voice inside me said:

All my life I've been chasing SETTING SUNS,

See me running up the hill when the evening comes,

They get further away the faster I run,

I'm getting old and tired of chasing SETTING SUNS

I walked down to the ocean,

Sat on the cold hard stones

Saw the seabirds fishing and the sunlight glisten

Down on my English home

I thought back to all the things I've seen

The people I know and the places I've been

City skylines and the fields of green,

It's a wonder I needed home

All my life I've been chasing SETTING SUNS,

See me running up the hill when the evening comes,

They get further away the faster I run,

I'm getting old and tired of chasing SETTING SUNS

Well, all my life I've been chasing SETTING SUNS,

See me running up the hill when the evening comes,

They get further away the faster I run,

I'm getting old and tired of chasing SETTING SUNS
