Saddness is Sundown

(Captain T (Tom Hunnicutt))
SADDNESS IS SUNDOWN
By Tom Hunnicutt & Sandra Kline


1st Verse
Sadness is Sundown and riding into Nashville,
Away from our old mountain home.
Looking for something – right now I can’t remember,
Feeling nothing but alone.

Chorus

Sunlight on Sasafras – black berry vines,
Old men smiling with God on their minds.
Fire flies, summer storms and dirt roads that wind,
Longing for all the love that I left behind.

2nd Verse

I’m wondering why those mountains
So blue are between us – I need to be by your side.
In our little cabin – snuggled deep in them mountains,
But here down this highway I ride.

3rd Verse

Sadness is Sundown, my hopes going with it,
I realize now I was wrong,
to try and find the answer - iIn a big lonely city –
when baby in your arms I belong,

(Repeat 1st Verse)
(Repeat Chorus)
