A long day is winding down
The neighbors are arriving
The street noise is dying away
As they go into hiding
The mail says lots of things
I find no use in knowing
It sits, closed, atop the bin
your name, my address showing
But there?s a sunset
Over hope street
There?s a sunset
Over hope street
I want to wish
To wish you what you want
Most times it?s plain to see
You?re driving someone crazy
But then there are other ones
When someone just gets lazy
And there?s a sunset
Over hope street
There?s a sunset
Over hope street
I want you wish
To wish you what you want
There?s a sunset
Over hope street
There?s a sunset
Over hope street
But you are what
Yeah you are what I want
But you are what
