John Denver Eclipse Lyrics

The sun is slowly fading in the western sky.
Sometimes it takes forever for the day to end.
Sometimes it takes a lifetime-
Sometimes I think I'll never see the sun again.

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 that people work with their machines.
Serenity's a long time coming to me,
In fact I don't believe I know what it means.

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 that people work with their machines.
Serenity's a long time coming to me,
IN fact I don't believe I know what it means any more.

When 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
Sun again.
