Roxy Music - Sunset

Ah look at the sun - it?s all a-glow
Slow burning star - sinking low
Heaven knows where you go
Out of sight, out of minds eye, no

Aw such a shame - you must leave
All day long you were a friend to me
Still - the moon?s company
Until morning when larks will sing

Horizon?s appointment you?ll keep
For sunswept flamingoes must sleep
Scenes like these from my dreams
Cover cutting room floors all over

Warm heart we spin slowly from view
Why are you sad - do you disapprove
How we wasted our time
Sunset - end of my day - my decline

Post-script you trace colours the sky
Red-letter light fades, is filed away
Sunburst fingers you raise
One last sigh of farewell - goodbye
