eclipse

John Denver

The sun is slowly fadin in the western sky
Sometimes it takes forever for the day to end
Sometimes it takes a lifetime
Sometimes I think Ill never see the sun again

In the east a shaded moon is hangin lazily
I do believe I saw the old man smile
I do believe I did
I do believe hes been hangin all the while

I think its kind of interesting the way things get to be
The way that people work with their machines
Serenitys a long time comin to me
The fact I dont believe I know what it means

Theres a heavy smog between me and my mountains
Its enough to make a grown man sit and cry
Its enough to make you wonder
Its enough to make the world roll up and die

I think its kind of interesting the way things get to be
The way that people work with their machines
Serenitys a long time comin to me
The fact I dont believe I know what it means any more

When the sun is slowly fadin in the western sky
Sometimes it takes forever the day to end
Sometimes it takes a lifetime
Sometimes I think Ill never see the sun again
Sun again
