Sunset Song

With you or without you, love,
 I must be moving
 Never meant to linger here so long
 With you or without you,
 though it breaks my heart
 To hear the Sunset Song
 Wasn't that a time we had,
 and bless you for it
 But I'm a stranger here, I don't belong
 The band's down on the jetty,
 if you cup your ear
 You'll hear the Sunset Song
 You said, if I hold my breath
 Dive down deep enough
 I might grow fins
 Seems to me I've held my breath
 Held my breath to please you
 ever since
 Early morning, that's the time
 for fare-thee-wells
 Slip out of the warm sheets and gone
 But I want to hear it as I walk along
 Hear the Sunset Song
 In your waking, in your dreams,
 I won't be martyred
 On that cross where some say
 I belong
 Opinions are coffins, I'll just trust my feet
 To find the Sunset Song
 Every day I'll wear your memory
 Like a favourite shirt upon my back
 In the hallway, there's my suitcase
 By the door, I never did unpack
 With you or without you, love,
 I must be moving
 Never meant to linger here so long
 With you or without you,
 though it breaks my heart
 To hear the Sunset Song
