Let the Sun Go Down

Come at it from every side
There’s nothing left we haven’t tried
It’s not that you’ve done something wrong
Whichever way you look at it
It’s no one’s fault; we just don’t fit
Don’t blame yourself too long
The sun shone for a while on you and me
But the day is over now
It’ll rise again in the morning, you’ll see
But you gotta let the sun go down
We used to talk of lovers past
You wonder how you ever let it last
What a fool you must’ve been
Well you’ll soon be looking back
At us two just the same as that
You’ll soon laugh to think of me
The sun shone for a while on you and me
But the day is over now
It’ll rise again in the morning, you’ll see
But you gotta let the sun go down
And like the branches of two trees
That try to catch each other in the breeze
We were rooted too far in the end
And if you bend too far you break
We’ll be taller, stronger if we wait
Than reach across the 'further than'
The sun shone for a while on you and me
But the day is over now
It’ll rise again in the morning, you’ll see
But you gotta let the sun go down
It’ll rise again in the morning, you’ll see
But you gotta let the sun go down
Yeah you gotta let the sun go down
