Paroles: Tanita Tikaram. Sunset's Arrived.

Your sun doesn't make it easy for me
Way I breathed before now I don't breathe no more freely
I like to catch the shoulder where you cry
My business a message on to the sky

If it's a long time coming
Just carry, carry somebody else's blame
If it's a long time coming
Let us start the speech again

My clown hooked the rose between his teeth
Stole into the night till my laugh was quiet relief
Your spice let me roll it through my tongue
When I'm caught and older I'll still be caught beneath this sun

And everybody was here
They was telling their own sad stories
I'm sorry I'm not so clear and time will take you aside
You better cover your eyes 'cause you'll cry

'Cos I know sunset's
As I know sunset's
I know sunset's arrived

Your light, let the shadow take it down
There's no sense in the beginning with the cover on your frown
And my light makes the shade, a shade too black
And though I choose this you still choose to have me back

And everybody was here
They was telling their own sad stories
I'm sorry I'm not so clear and time will take you aside
You better cover your eyes 'cause you'll cry

'Cos I know sunset's
'Cos I know sunset's
'Cos I know sunset's arrived

While you were out yonder
Checking out the scene
Maybe you'll hear the thunder
Maybe you'll lose your dream

My heat is only striking hot for you
'Cos I'm not shaking easy I'm just acting from your own truth
And hey boss couldn't make it on your own
Sure I've stamped you easy and I'll lead you back to home

And everybody was here
They was telling their own sad stories
I'm sorry I'm not so clear
And time will take you aside
You better cover your eyes 'cause you'll cry

'Cos I know sunset's
I know sunset's
I know sunset's arrived
