Eternal Sunset

from Land of Dreams by Ben Below

/

lyrics

There we were, the four of us, settled in that fateful night
Perfect strangers only sitting down for dinner, didn't know that it could change our life
In our apartment in the land of dream, where everything can only go right
Far outside the city walls, and far beyond the city lights

Cause when the sun goes down on Primrose Hill
We all need somebody to dream of
Cause when the sun goes down on Primrose Hill
We all need somebody to dream of

We laughed we joked, we drank, we smoked, in the land where time had frozen for it
A life lived slow in the orange glow, in the twilight of eternal sunset

Cause when the sun goes down on Primrose Hill
We all need somebody to dream of
Cause when the sun goes down on Primrose Hill
We all need somebody to dream of

First Dave fell for Lara, and Lara fell for me
We laughed it off, but I was falling for them both, and we were all a-falling for Marie
But love is not a secret to be shared with just one soul
And rather than quash our feelings down, we'd be four quarters of a larger whole

Cause when the sun goes down on Primrose Hill
We all need somebody to dream of
Cause when the sun goes down on Primrose Hill
We all need somebody to dream of

So we were inseparable for our miniscule eternity
No desire to attack the terrible fact, eventually we'd have to leave
One day a sudden sharp reminder, of the life before this waking dream
Absent mindedly check a calendar, discover how long it's been

Four years, four golden years
It's been four years, its' been four golden years

But every golden sunset has a corresponding sunrise
And when the time came for waking once again it wasn't long enough to say goodbye
A pit inside my stomach, and a vow again one day
When the sun goes down on London town, I'll find you all again, and find a way to stay
