THE SUNSET IS BEAUTIFUL, ISN’T IT? [Intro — soft female vocal over bass & guitar] Mmm… Look at that sky… Stay here a little while… [Verse 1] Don’t say anything, just sit with me Let the evening fall into the sea There’s something hanging between our words Maybe some things don’t need to be heard Your shoulder’s close, but you’re miles away And neither of us knows what to say So I watch the gold turn into red And leave the words inside my head [Pre-Chorus] If I could hold this moment still Maybe I would, maybe I will But daylight never asks to stay It gives us everything… then fades [Chorus] The sunset is beautiful, isn’t it? Look how the whole sky burns Holding on for one more minute Knowing it won’t return The sunset is beautiful, isn’t it? Don’t answer, I already know Just stay beside me till the colors disappear And when they’re gone… You can go [Instrumental — bass takes the melody] Mm-mm… Ohhh… [Verse 2] We had our summer, we had our rain We had those nights I’d live again And if I had another thousand lives I’d still choose this one by your side But even flowers lose their bloom And morning gives its light to moon Nothing beautiful was made to stay Maybe that’s what makes it beautiful anyway [Pre-Chorus] So don’t make promises tonight Don’t turn our ending into a fight No need for words we’ve said before Just watch the shadows cross the floor [Chorus] The sunset is beautiful, isn’t it? Look how the whole sky burns Holding on for one more minute Knowing it won’t return The sunset is beautiful, isn’t it? Don’t answer, I already know Just stay beside me till the colors disappear And when they’re gone… You can go [Bridge — drums drop out, just bass, organ & voice] Maybe somewhere Under another sky You’ll see these colors And wonder if I Still stop what I’m doing When evening comes around Still think about your hand in mine When the sun goes down I hope you do… But don’t come back. [Bass slide — full groove drops back in] [Final Chorus — bigger female harmonies] The sunset is beautiful, isn’t it? Tonight it’s almost too much to see Funny how something can be ending And still look perfect to me The sunset is beautiful, isn’t it? The last light’s leaving us slow So stay beside me till the colors disappear No promises… No tears… No words we already know Just one last sky For you and me [Outro — groove continues as vocal becomes intimate] Look… The sun is almost gone. Mmm… Beautiful, isn’t it? [Female harmonies] Beautiful… So beautiful… [Lead, almost whispered] You should go. [Bass and guitar continue for 8 bars, then fade]
