When The Sun Goes Down lyrics

[BENNY]

When the sun goes down

You’re gonna need a flashlight

You’re gonna need a candle—

[NINA]

I think I can manage that

[BENNY]

When you leave town

I’m gonna buy you a calling card

[BENNY/NINA]

‘Cuz I’m falling hard for you

[NINA]

I go back on Labor Day

[BENNY]

And I will try to make my way

[BENNY/NINA]

Out west to California

[BENNY]

So we’ve got this summer

[NINA]

And we’ve got each other

Perhaps even longer

[BENNY]

When you’re on your own

And suddenly without me

Will you forget about me?

[NINA]

I couldn’t if I tried

[BENNY]

When I’m all alone

And I close my eyes

[BENNY/NINA]

That’s when I’ll see your face again

[BENNY]

And when you’re gone

You know that I’ll be waiting when you’re gone

[NINA]

But you’re here with me right now…

[BENNY]

We’ll be working hard, but if we should drift apart

[NINA]

Benny—

[BENNY]

Lemme take this moment just to say—

[NINA]

No, no—

[BENNY]

You are gonna change the world some day—

[NINA]

I’ll be thinking of home—

[BENNY/NINA]

And I’ll think of you every night

At the same time—

[BENNY]

When the sun goes down

[NINA]

When the sun goes down

[BENNY]

When the sun goes down
