The Sunset and the Old Man Lyrics by Don Kim (Blues Version)
The sunset is beautiful
’Cause it carries the evening glow
And the evening is beautiful
’Cause it knows it’s time to go
An old man’s smile is beautiful
’Cause it’s filled with yesterday
An old man’s tears are beautiful
’Cause they’ve seen the harder days
Every road he ever walked
Still whispers in his mind
All the words he never said
He left behind
An old man’s smile is beautiful
’Cause it’s filled with yesterday
An old man’s tears are beautiful
’Cause they’ve seen the harder days
In the end, all we are
Is stories we’ve outgrown
And the truth comes softly
When we’re alone
Even when the sun goes down
The warmth still hangs around
And in the weight of all those years
Love is quietly found
Names he carried in his heart
Places he still knows
Some turn into memories
Some never let him go
An old man’s smile is beautiful
’Cause it’s filled with yesterday
An old man’s tears are beautiful
’Cause they’ve seen the harder days
Life becomes the final light
Before the dark begins
Like a sunset
Fading in
At the end of every day
When the sky lets go
Life is just a sunset
We all come to know
