John Denver - Eclipse From the album Earth Songs

John Denver - Eclipse from the album Earth Songs.. Ilove it A LOT!

Songtekst:

The sun is slowly fadin in the western sky
Sometimes it takes forever for the day to end
Sometimes it takes a lifetime
Sometimes I think Ill never see the sun again

In the east a shaded moon is hangin lazily
I do believe I saw the old man smile
I do believe I did
I do believe hes been hangin all the while

I think its kind of interesting the way things get to be
The way that people work with their machines
Serenitys a long time comin to me
The fact I dont believe I know what it means

Theres a heavy smog between me and my mountains
Its enough to make a grown man sit and cry
Its enough to make you wonder
Its enough to make the world roll up and die

I think its kind of interesting the way things get to be
The way that people work with their machines
Serenitys a long time comin to me
The fact I dont believe I know what it means any more

When the sun is slowly fadin in the western sky
Sometimes it takes forever the day to end
Sometimes it takes a lifetime
Sometimes I think Ill never see the sun again
Sun again

This version of Eclipse is from the EARTH SONGS album from 1989-90.

[Esvazw]

Ya i know, but is it the same version?

[MisterOoms]

The original version is from the Back Home Again album.  The Earth Songs version is different. Hope it helps.

[Esvazw]

He thanks man!

THanks for the download.  I've been trying to remember which song it was that had these lyrics.

[Esvazw]

I'm glad you say thanks!

Love the caricature of J.D., and the song says so much about modern life and cultures. Thank you so much for posting this. May we all benefit from the message!

Great song, also a great caricature of John. That sincere face and that smile are iconic and inimitable. RIP John.

I have searched for this song for months, thinking it was called "Serenity". Someone saw my plea on my own version and directed me to you. Thanks for the lyrics, that one line I never could remember about the moon!! I couldn't undersatnd why this song wasn't on YT, when it was the whole time!

big hug!
