I've walked seven hours since the break of dawn

looks like I ended up here on your front lawn

maybe I was lonely, maybe I was blue

maybe I couldn't sleep til I talked to you

spent the day thinking about what it all means

new cars credit cars, movies and magazines

nothing is lasting, we'll leave it behind

doesn't matter what's yours or what is mine

but maybe there's some truth to these lines

chorus - setting suns and morning showers

they don't last all day

everyone, like every flower

soon will pass away

even this guitar that I hold in my hand

was once in the trees, the earth, the sand

and when it goes back there, back from where it came

it will still have life, but a different name

and maybe for you and me it's the same

chorus

bridge - winter is cold

but the sun is knocking on the door

the young, they get old

and the rich will soon be poor

see, I had a friend who let me down

blowing everybody else's money all over town

forgiving your debtors

forgiving their debts

it's like forgiving yourself for your regrets

it's like forgiving the sun each time it sets

chorus
