I can't light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired, time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
Don't let the sun go down on me
(Don't let the sun)
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
(Don't let the sun)
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
I can't find, oh, the right romantic line
But see me once, see the way I feel
Don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have, oh, they need love, help them heal
Don't let the sun go down on me
(Don't let the sun)
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
(Don't let the sun)
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I searched myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
Losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Losing everything is like the sun going down on me
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired, time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
Don't let the sun go down on me
(Don't let the sun)
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
(Don't let the sun)
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
I can't find, oh, the right romantic line
But see me once, see the way I feel
Don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have, oh, they need love, help them heal
Don't let the sun go down on me
(Don't let the sun)
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
(Don't let the sun)
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I searched myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
Losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Losing everything is like the sun going down on me
