Can you see the young and pretty
|
Confident as cops
|
Blooming, laughing in the shops
|
Till the sun turns black
|
|
Can you see the old and lonely
|
Walking through the park
|
Pushing grocery carts
|
Till the sun turns black
|
|
Can you see the corporate man
|
He's winning on the telephone
|
His possessions are his throne
|
Till the sun turns black
|
|
Can you see him in his lounger
|
Watching TV in the dark
|
Waiting for a spark
|
Till the sun turns black
|
|
Oh oh oh oh oh
|
Who are we
|
Oh oh oh oh oh
|
Who are we
|
Who are we
|
|
Can you see the working classes
|
Trudging through their days
|
Time goes slowly when you're only waiting
|
Till the sun turns black
|
|
Can you see the wise man simply
|
Living, loving quietly
|
Every breath he takes eternity
|
Till the sun turns black
|
|

Till The Sun Turns Black
