Watch the sGunset, hold it frBmom afar
Close as F#mI get, to being whAere you are
While there's lGight left, I sing this sBmong for you
Don't know if F#myou care, but every dAay I do
Here I stGand, staring at the Sun
Distant lBmand, staring at the Sun
You're not tF#mhere, but we share the same Aone
Miles apGart, staring at the Sun
Distant tBmown, staring at the Sun
One thing's tF#mrue just like you, there's only Aone
And I don't cGarDe if it burns my eAyes
And I don't cGarDe cause my love is blAind
From staring at the SGun, oh Doh
From staring at the SAun
From stBmaring at the SGun, oh Doh
From staring at the SAun
Send my lGove down in those rBmays of light
Through your F#mwindow on your tAired eyes
Say good mGorning, say it Bmto the Sun
Like you're F#mtalking, talking tAo someone
Here I stGand, staring at the Sun
Distant lBmand, staring at the Sun
You're not tF#mhere, but we share the same Aone
Miles apGart, staring at the Sun
Distant tBmown, staring at the Sun
One thing's tF#mrue just like you, there's only Aone
And I don't cGarDe if it burns my eAyes
And I don't cGarDe cause my love is blAind
From staring at the SGun, oh Doh
From staring at the SAun
From stBmaring at the SGun, oh Doh
From staring at the SAun
