Sunset Song Richard Thompson

[Verse 1]
With you or without you, love I must be moving
I never meant to linger here so long
With you or without you, though it breaks my heart
To hear the sunset song
To hear the sunset song

[Verse 2]
Wasn't that a time we had and bless you for it
But I'm a stranger here, I don't belong
The band's down on the jetty if you cup your ear
You'll hear the sunset song
You'll hear the sunset song

[Bridge]
You said, if I held my breath
Dive down deep enough I might grow fins
Seems to me I've held my breath
Held my breath to please you ever since
Ever since

[Verse 3]
Now early morning, that's the time for fare-thee-wells
Slip out of the warm sheets and gone
But I long to hear it as I walk away
To hear the sunset song
To hear the sunset song
