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 youever since Early morning, that's the timefor fare-thee-wells Slip out of the warm sheets and gone But I want to hear it as I walk along Hear the Sunset SongIn your waking, in your dreams, I won't be martyred On that cross where some say I belongOpinions 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
