When the sun goes down
It really goes down
Never stops or hesitates
Or ever turns around
I guess I've stopped searching for you in the dark
Oh my old friend
This is what they call the end
This is where the rainbow bends across the sky

When the sun goes down
It makes the shadows tall
And the fireflies get up and fly
And the night birds call
And that's almost everything I know
About it all
Oh my old friend
This is what they call the end
This is where the rainbow bends across the sky
