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 . .
