Album: Strange Times
I want to ride the range
Across those skies of black.
I want to see for myself
And see me coming back
And when I've gone the distance
I'll be making tracks
For an English sunset.
We're on a runaway train
Rolling down the track
And where it's taking us to
Who knows where it's at
But, if we hold together,
We can make it back
For an English sunset.
We want an English sunset.
I feel the rhythm of the Earth
In my soul tonight,
May it never fade away
And I've decided I can live
With humility
And the sad decay
'Cos that's the English way.
We keep the faith alive
In everything we do
And, at the end of the road,
We still keep coming through
And, though it's sad and sorry,
What else can we do?
It's an English sunset,
An English sunset.
I feel the rhythm of the Earth
In my soul tonight,
May it never fade away
And I've decided they can wait
For the requiem.
We take it day by day
'Cos that's the English way.
I saw the English sunset.
