Lyrics

On a flight path out of berlin
I had a sense what I was falling in
I caught the light refracting from your eyes
On the runway below making me blind
I had a hurricane warning in my chest
Listening for the voice that knows me best
It's all so simple and so true but I'm so slow to learn

Yeah you've got me
I'm in your world
Caught in your sunset
Overturned

So I put down in nova scotia
In the pine tree sun I could smell the ocean
I was trying so hard not to remember
Washing it clean in the icy water
But the energy I can't resist
And when the fog rolls in I think of your kiss
So I light a fire to stare into
But love's so slow to burn

Yeah you've got me
I'm in your world
Caught in your sunset
Overturned

Well some will say that nothing lasts forever
And some will say it's better to be safe
I don't care; I'll stay with you whatever it takes

Yeah you've got me
I'm in your world
Caught in your sunset
