"Sun Slip Away" lyrics

Here's the thing, man, you've gotta know
The ride upstream, it's worth the ride alone
By the time they break you
Nobody's gonna take you home

Here's to you, man, your life's amazing
You gotta get it through you, you've gotta stay chasing
It's like everybody speaks to you
In a foreign language

But the tide is coming, the street's alight (The street's alight)
Your mind is running, you agonise (You agonise)
But you take a breath and you close your eyes
You know summer's coming, you count the days (You count the days)
To when you'll feel a feeling a thousand ways (A thousand ways)
And when it's nice to be the one
The one who stays

(I can only embrace my love)
(And the time it'll take, my love)
Tonight, we'll see the sun slip away
(I can only embrace my love)
(And the time it'll take, my love)
Tonight, we'll see the sun slip away
Tonight, we'll see the sun slip away

But the tide is coming, the street's alight
Your mind is running, you agonise
But you take a breath and you close your eyes
(Tonight, we'll see the sun slip away)
You know summer's coming, you count the days (Tonight, we'll see the sun slip away)
To when you'll feel a feeling a thousand ways (Tonight, we'll see the sun slip away)
And when it's nice to be the one
The one who stays (Tonight, we'll see the sun slip away)
Well, tonight, we'll see the sun slip away
