Lyrics for Setting Sun

The cast was made to reset broken bones But there's no such thing to fix a love gone wrong Keep knocking the door 'cause I know someone's there I wait on the porch, hoping someday I'll be let in They say in the end, everythin' will be okay If it's not okay, well, then it ain't the end Had dreams, to you, I would belong Had the dream you would stay with me 'til kingdom come Turns out, forever has come and gone Am I the only one hanging on? Hand in hand, yeah, we took it on You answered my prayers, now from my knees, I can't get up Lost patience with time, yeah, hurry up your patience tonight I'd like some of yours, in trade, can take all of mine I dreamt, to you, I would belong Had the dream you would stay with me 'til your kingdom come Turns out, it was more like hit-and-run Am I the only one hanging on? Oh, am I the only one hanging on? If you could see, yeah, what I see now You'd find a way to stay somehow Oh, if you could see, yeah, what I see now You'd make your way to stay somehow May your days be long 'til kingdom come May our days be long before kingdom come May our days be long until kingdom come We can become one last setting sun Am I the only one hanging on? We could become one last setting sun Or be the sun at the break of dawn Let us not fade Let us not fade
