When you told me of the place

Well, I knew I had to go

In the dark

I was born toward the light

When you told me of your life

I was up before the dawn

And your heart

Found a home next to mine

And every time I had to fly

You were there by my side

In sundown land

On an island, in a town

Well, I followed into Spain

But the hills

Turned around to fall again

And the valley of your words

Was a river in my heart

Like a wave

I am thrown, torn apart

And every time I had to fly

You were there to say goodbye

And every storm upon the road

Even more, I love you so

In sundown land

And maybe there’s a god

There’s a place made of rest

Maybe in the light, beneath the moon

And maybe there’s a reason why

I’m dying every time

I thought I’d see you

Still be near you

In sundown land

Sundown land

Sundown land

Sundown land
