No.432 Go Home Before Sunset

[Lyrics]
[Intro]

[Verse 1]
A primary school student said, “Hello.”
We replied, “Hello.” And he ran off.
I said, “It’s lively here, isn’t it?”
She replied, “The primary school is nearby.”

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I sipped my hot tea.
She also sipped her hot tea.

[Chorus 1]
Let’s borrow a book.
And go home,
Before sunset,
Before it gets dark.

[Verse 2]
We put away our water bottles.
We picked up our bags,
And climbed the concrete stairs,
One step at a time.

[Pre-Chorus 2]
When we reached the parking lot,
It was cloudy and raining.

[Chorus 2]
Let’s borrow a book.
And go home,
Before sunset,
Before it gets dark.

[Instrumental Solo]

[Verse 3]
I opened my umbrella,
And walked carefully,
So that she wouldn’t get wet.
I opened the passenger door.

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Let her get in.
I closed the door.

[Chorus 3]
Let’s borrow a book.
And go home,
Before sunset,
Before it gets dark.

[Bridge]
We drove down the steep slope,
And slowly started the car down the street.
We were almost home.
I asked her, “What would you like for dinner?”

[Final Chorus]
Let’s borrow a book.
And go home,
Before sunset,
Before it gets dark.
