Gone with the Sun

I’ve got a stirring, 
Deep inside,
Do I follow, 
Or do I hide?
‘Cause she told me to love her,
Like the world’s end,
But it’s my time,
That she loves to spend,
And I’ve only got so long. 

Some are here to love,
Some are here to lie,
Some will stick around,
While others say goodbye,
They swear they’re there forever,
Then they only last the night,
Whether you hold them close,
Or whether you hold them tight. 

And then they’re gone,
They’re gone with the sun. 
Yeah then they’re gone,
They’re gone with the sun. 

You say go ahead,
Go and take the risk,
What’s it gonna hurt,
At the end of all of this?
But it isn’t your heart,
That’s broken time and time again,
When they told me to love them,
And I did.

And then they were gone,
They’re gone with the sun. 
Yeah they were gone,
Gone with the sun. 
Am I the only, the only one?

Some are here to love,
Some are here to lie,
Some will stick around,
While others say goodbye,
They swear they’re there forever,
Then they only last the night,
Whether you hold them close,
Or whether you hold them tight. 

And then they’re gone,
They’re gone with the sun. 
Yeah then they’re gone,
They’re gone with the sun. 
Am I the only, the only one?

I’ve got a stirring, 
Deep inside,
Do I follow, 
Or do I hide?
