Mark Lanegan - El Sol Lyrics

Mark Lanegan Lyrics

"El Sol"

The sun is gone
And that's all I really know
No angels in the air
With hearts as good as gold
The closer you stand to the gates
The more the gates are closed

These darkened days
Make some bodies hunger and thirst
The blessed burns the sun
He's throwing shadows on the earth
The shadow you find at the gate
When all the gates are closed
Oh, yeah

Then in time you find your race is run
Felt much colder standing in the sun
Waiting for some warmth and coming down
Felt much older and then I really was
Waiting for some warmth and coming down

The sun is gone
Yeah, that's all I really know
No angels in the air
With hearts as good as gold
The closer you stand to the gates
The more the gates are closed

Then in time you find your race is run
Felt much colder standing in the sun
Waiting for some warmth and coming down
Felt much older and then I really was
Waiting for some warmth and coming down
Felt much older standing in the sun
Waiting for some warmth and coming down
Waiting for some warmth and coming down, down
Waiting for some warmth and coming down
Waiting for some warmth and coming down
