Sweet Sundown - Kelly Willis

How did you compete

With such a tragic week

How on earth did you

Know what to say

And could you taste

Those tears on my tremblin' lips

When you kissed my blues away

Our time was short

But the days were long

I was tired but never

Too tired for you

What a dragged away

Goodbye to your birthday girl

When you cant afford

The tickets for two

And when the sundown

Somethin up against

An autumn sky

Now sundown is nothing

I would ever recognize

Sittin on the docks

Late one evening

Who could miss

Such a beautiful view

Sweet sundown

I have nothing but love for you

Once the Howard

Lakes have frozen

And the bats go

Back to Mexico

The backstreet's

Are more than poison

One each to someone

You used to know

The canyons were grand but

I just couldnt stand

A regret for a rendez' affair

And once that moon went

Down on your Texas town

It was too late to pretend you cared

And when the sundown

Somethin up against

An autumn sky

Now sundown is nothing

I would ever recognize

Sittin' on the docks

Late one evening

Who could miss such

A beautiful view

Sweet sundown

I have nothing but love for you

And when the sundown

Somethin up against

An autumn sky

Now sundown is nothing

I would ever recognize

Sittin on the docks late one evening

Who could miss such

A beautiful view

Sweet sundown

I have nothing but love for you

Oh sweet sundown

I have nothing but love for you
