Beyond Sunset and Sea
Sitting on the Shore
Looking at the Sea
Whenever I saw the sun
At the orange horizon
A thought always hit me
Was this the dark end
at the dusk, or
On the other side
the dawn had already broken
Standing at the end of the world
On the edge, I feel alive
no land, no sky I see
Eternity stretching forever
Beyond the Sunset and Sea
