the strokes - evening sun





they love you or they hate you

but they will never let you be

they'll 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 separate way now

someday you'll come back

and i'll be dreaming i was sunburned

i don't wonna make your heart in

and break you heart in two halves

keep one half

and give one half to me

i like the summer-

miss the summer

tell me, what'd you do?

nothing? me too...



actors they're pretending

and singers they will sometimes lie

kids are always honest

they don't think their ever gonna die

oh your the pretty smartest captain of the team

i love you more than being 17



in the evening sun

in the evening sun

in the evening sun
