Lyrics
BEFORE THE SUN GOES DOWN
Awake alone to a brand new day
I will die on this road if that’s what it takes
The time the miles the misappropriation of love
You’re so far away
The end is not what I’m looking for
I would give my soul to be at your door
I can’t hear you breathe I can’t see you dream
I need more…
Found the means in a loaded question
Saw the way in a gentle sunset
In my heart there’s a blacktop highway
That leads me to you
I’m loaded down and I’m feeling lonely
I’d take it all back if you would only
I gotta find you I gotta see you
Before the sun goes down
Sometimes when I go away
I’m forced to live in another time and place
No matter what tricks my heart might play
I am waiting for you
I understand what I think is right
And I thought it through night after night
I gotta find you I gotta tell you
Before the sun goes down
I got a dream and I want it to be mine
My heart beats and burns for you all the time
Complicated is how is has to be
Another level to the story of you and me
It’s much better to know than to just believe
I’m so careful with the heart you wear on your sleeve
I could just die right where I fall
If I could just tell you it all
I got a feeling and it’s coming ‘round
On top the mountain looking down at the clouds
I would walk through my own hell and fire
If it leads me to you
The mantra of the empty hearted
Pushes me on to finish what was started
I gotta find you I gotta see you
Before the sun goes down
