Sun Goes Down

I got a postcard in the mail today

And on the back she wrote the words that she could not say

On the front a desert sky orange red and brown

She wrote will you think of me when the sun goes down

She wrote it wasn't anything I did

To make her leave me all alone to raise both our kids

Said she cannot spend the night in that desert town

Cause she always thinks of me when the sun goes down

So hard to know how long it's gonna take

To hear the heart that was never supposed to break

She said to tell her mother hi for her

And that she thinks of coming home but she's still not sure

Plays piano when she can

But she hates the sound

And she always thinks of me when sun goes down

So hard to know how long it's gonna take

To hear the heart that was never supposed to break

What a mistake

I put that postcard in the fire tonight

Like all the others that she sends cuz they are all alike

I closed the window and I pulled the shades all down

I'm not gonna think of her when the sun goes down

When the sun goes down

When the sun goes down

When the sun goes down

When the sun goes down

When the sun goes down
