Lyrics

Zah's Blues

A baby doesn't know

How loneliness can feel

She has her own small world

And nothing in it's real

Just spread joy all around

And watch the sun coming down

When I was young the world was rich

With spices and par fays

My heart was filled with pride

My head was filled with praise

I wore my youth like a crown

And watch the sun coming down

Love only lasts for a moment

Life holds a brief smile for all

The sunshine can't last forever

And soon the night must fall

Memories can fade

In dreams that you can find

You'll finally reach the end

And never look behind

No use in turning around

It's just the sun coming down

No use in turning around

It's just the sun coming down

It's just the sun coming down
