Eclipse - John Denver

The sun is slowly fading 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

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 the people work with their machines

Serenity’s a long time coming to me In fact I don’t believe that I know what it means

In the east a shaded moon is hanging lazily

I do believe I saw the old man smile

I do believe I did

I do believe he’s been laughing all the while

I think it’s kind of interesting the way things get to be The way the people work with their machines

Serenity’s a long time coming to me In fact I don’t believe that I know what it means

Anymore

The sun is slowly fading 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

The sun again, sun again woo oo oo.
