Jeremy James - Sunset Lyrics




When I was young I thought that love came easy
Like story books where the beauty was sleeping
Sound and still waiting for a kiss
To take her off into the sunset bliss

But the years just seem to complicate
As they pull their levers with their hands of hate
They push my sunset further away
I wonder if I will live to see the day

When I can stand up and say
I take you today

You know what they say about love and marriage
And all the weight that those words can carry
It's an institution for the privileged kind
It's the dictation of what ties can bind

If there's one thing that my eyes have seen
It's that there's no such thing as normalcy
It's not the law that makes a family
But the way that I melt when you look at me

That's why I make the claim
That we are different and still exactly the same

I've got no mind to destroy your family
I've got no means to rewrite history
But I've got more patience than Job could will
I've got a ring and a finger and some time to kill

We can shout about it till our throats are hoarse
We can fight about it to the highest court
We can shake our fists or we can beg and plead
For a chance at that story book sunset dream

I will fight to my grave
If that's all it takes
I will not bend, I will not sway
Until that charming prince comes to save the day
