About the Artist
Lyrics
Sundown, sundown They're taking all the tents down Where have you gone, my handsome Billy? Sundown, sundown The carnival trains leave the town Where are you now, darling Billy? We won't be dancing together on the high wire Facing the lions with you at my side anymore We won't be breathing the smoke and the fire On the midway Hanging from the trapeze My wrists waiting for your wrists Two daredevils high upon the wall of death You throw the knife, it lands inches from my heart Sundown Moonrise, moonrise The light that was in your eyes is gone Daybreak, daybreak The thing in you that made me ache is gone We'll be riding the train without you tonight The train that keeps on moving It's black smoke scorching the evening sky Millions of stars shining above us like every soul living and dead It's been gathered together by God To sing a hymn over your bones Sundown, sundown Empty are the fairgrounds Where are you now, my handsome Billy?
