Eclipse Lyrics

the sun is slowly fadin' in the western sky Sometimes it takes forever for the day to end Sometimes it takes a lifetime Sometimes i think i'll never see the sun again There's a heavy smog between me and my mountains It's enough to make a grown man sit and cry It's enough to make you wonder It's enough to make the world roll up and die I think it's kind of interesting the way things get to be The way that people work with their machines Serenity's a long time comin' to me The fact i don't believe i know what it means In the east a shaded moon is hangin' lazily I do believe i saw the old man smile I do believe i did I do believe he's been hangin' all the while I think it's kind of interesting the way things get to be The way that people work with their machines Serenity's a long time comin' to me The fact i don't believe i know what it means any more When the sun is slowly fadin' in the western sky Sometimes it takes forever the day to end Sometimes it takes a lifetime Sometimes i think i'll never see the sun again Sun again Words and music by john denver
