Lyrics
When The Sun Goes Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Every night, when the sun goes down
every night, when the sun goes down
every night, when the sun goes down
hang my head, and mournful cry:
You're gone!
You're gone!
My own true love, you're gone!
Our love was new on that yesterday;
Our love was true on that yesterday;
The love we knew on that yesterday
has grown cold; you're gone away.
Now I'm alone in this empty town;
I'm so alone in this dreary town,
and I call for my own true love,
every night, when the sun goes down:
You're gone!
You're gone!
My own true love, you're gone!
My own true love, you're gone!
