Well, I walked out this evening

Stood out in front of my house

To see the daylight leaving

My eyes pointed south.

I felt like I was dreaming,

I'd never seen the sky so red

Gave me the strangest feeling

And a voice inside me said,

[Chorus]

All my life I've been chasing setting suns

See me running up the hill when the evening comes

They get further away the faster I run

I'm getting old and tired of chasing setting suns.

I walked down to the ocean,

Sat on the cold hard stones,

Saw the seabirds fishing and the sunlight glistening

Down on my english home.

Thought back to all the things I've seen,

The people I know and the places I've been,

The city skylines and the fields of green

It's a wonder I've made it home.

[Chorus x2]

All my life I've been chasing setting suns

See me running up the hill when the evening comes

They get further away the faster I run

I'm getting old and tired of chasing setting suns.

I'm getting old and tired of chasing setting suns
