I Swallowed the Sunrise
I swallowed the sunrise
When I forgave you again
When the horizon said goodnight
Your darkness was hard to forget
You poured out your pride
At the top of the mountain
From the vista on high
I saw every carved canyon
Don’t ask me to love you
Don’t pray for tomorrow
Don’t expect me to follow
You’re on your own tonight
We drank with a toast
To our mutual award
Mine perched in the heavens
Yours within a crevasse
My darkness was hard to forget
When the horizon said goodnight
But I forgave myself again
Don’t ask me to love you
Don’t pray until tomorrow
Don’t expect me to follow
I’m on my own tonight
