There is a reason why the sun sets
But it’s not because the world is round
You see my heart needs the moon’s pale
Fire to reflect your eyes within.
There is a reason why the sun sets but
It’s not to do with planets in orbit
You see how else could we get to sit
On a beach and nurse it to rise again.
Now the Sun and the moon are both whispering
The sound of their conversation is the
Roaring of the Waves caressing your Toes
With their silver tops and every one of
Those Toes is a good enough reason
For the Sun to come out again.
And now the setting Sun is chanting your
Name: It can’t forget your eyes and your
Smile and this Greyhound Bus is a Time
Machine and I’m floating through the Ether
Of a Virtual world that doesn’t belong to Me
But it’s the only world I’ve got
So the Sun goes down and the Stars come out
And Every One of those Stars are smiling
‘Cos they heard your voice on the phone.
There’s a reason why the world is round
And it is: If I leave you and keep moving on
I’ll eventually come back from the other side
to wrap you in my arms and watch the sun
setting in your hair.
That’s a good enough reason for me.
