Sunsettin'

Last night's flame is burned up good and gone
As the cracklin' of the embers sings a morning song
And the coffee pot gets cold when it's just one cup you're pouring
And darkness turns to blue in spite of orange

Never seems to matter just how hard I try
My heart's an empty chamber by and by
Gettin' tired of the lonely, Lord, please tell me why
My love's always sunsettin' by sunrise

Spent years not looking for the one to stick around
Now the heavy in the quiet sure is gettin' loud
Shouldn't feel the weight at all when you're out there ridin' tall
Well, turns out you're just ridin' for a fall

Never seems to matter just how hard I try
My heart's an empty chamber by and by
Gettin' tired of the lonely, Lord, please tell me why
My love's always sunsettin' by sunrise

Gettin' tired of the lonely, Lord, please tell me why
My love's always sunsettin' by sunrise
