about

I received plenty of ideas to work with this week. I actually started down several paths with different suggestions. This is the path that seemed to go where I wanted to go. I'll let Ben's Idea speak for itself. For me, I thought of how I'm slowed down by sunsets, how they put me in a reflective state of mind. When the sun's high and bright we're in the busy time of life - maybe too busy to care about the chances around us to love. Sunset is when we remember.

lyrics

Sunsets

Sunsets…
Bring color to the fading day
Sunsets…
Can slow me down long enough to say
Love, there's time for love

The old folks…
I see the sunset in their smile
They show me
I begin to know in just a little while
How it feels to love, really love

But for you and I
The sun is high
And our dreams are up in the
Cloudless sky
What pulls us to love
Isn't in that sky above
It's in the moment, it's in the here, it's in the now

Sunsets…
Reminding us that we're alive
Sunsets…
Flicker of a flame that always dies
But love… never does
Our love never does
