They love you or they hate you, but they will never let you be
They thrill you or sedate you, but they will never let you see

In the evening sun
In the evening sun

Encourage and derange you, watch you walking scared alone
Despite intimidation, pleased to watch you dance alone

In the evening sun
In the evening sun

Go your seperate way now
Someday you'll come back and I'll be
Dreaming I was sunburned
I don't want to break your heart

And break your heart in two halves
Keep one half and give one half to me
I like the sun, miss the summer
Tell me, what'd you do? Nothing? Me too

Actors, they're pretending and singers they will sometimes lie
No, kids are always honest, they don't think they're ever gonna die

You're the prettiest smartest captain of the team
I love you more than being seventeen

In the evening sun
In the evening sun
In the evening sun
