The sun is falling over glass and gold Another story that we never told Your name is written in the evening air I turn around but you’re not there The traffic hums like a memory A little light still follows me I keep my hands on the wheel tonight Driving straight into the fading light And I know, I know We can’t go back again But your shadow glows At the place where night begins Meet me on Sunset Avenue Where the sky still remembers you Every color that we used to know Burns a little before it goes Meet me on Sunset Avenue I’m still chasing the afterview If the night takes me somewhere new I’ll leave one light on for you Sunset, sunset I still feel you Sunset, sunset On the avenue The city changes but the feeling stays Pink reflections on the window panes I hear your laughter in a passing car Close enough but still too far A neon sign starts to come alive Like something lonely learned to survive I let the evening hold my hand As the dark falls over this land Maybe love is just a street We cross and never find again Maybe every goodbye starts Where the golden hour ends Meet me on Sunset Avenue Where the sky still remembers you Every color that we used to know Burns a little before it goes Meet me on Sunset Avenue I’m still chasing the afterview If the night takes me somewhere new I’ll leave one light on for you
