Sun Won't Stop
Children ran to the river bank
Left their shoes and swam toward the light
When dark came on and the dinner bell rang
The children were nowhere in sight
Only a shape, only a memory, only a shell
And the sun won't stop for no one
Death paused on its weary way
Left the highway and stayed the night
When dawn came on and my mama rose
My daddy was nowhere in sight
Only a shape, only a memory, only a shell
And the sun won't stop for no one
Who's gonna hold my hand when I'm old
I'll still have stories to tell
You will wish one day you had paused to listen
But I will be nowhere in sight
Only a shape, only a memory, only a shell
And the sun won't stop for no one
Left their shoes and swam toward the light
When dark came on and the dinner bell rang
The children were nowhere in sight
Only a shape, only a memory, only a shell
And the sun won't stop for no one
Death paused on its weary way
Left the highway and stayed the night
When dawn came on and my mama rose
My daddy was nowhere in sight
Only a shape, only a memory, only a shell
And the sun won't stop for no one
Who's gonna hold my hand when I'm old
I'll still have stories to tell
You will wish one day you had paused to listen
But I will be nowhere in sight
Only a shape, only a memory, only a shell
And the sun won't stop for no one
