Letra:

As I watch this sunset
The enchantment of the long night descends around me
Through the fading blue sky, stars arrive quietly
And the chirps of crickets herald the golden hour

The day is at an end
And there are ten million things I'll have to do before I sleep
In the morning, there will be ten million, yet still
And then again, a sunset

But in this moment
The sun is not just some giant ball put there to make me feel small
It is an old friend who I have known longer than anyone else
And this evening, I am by its side to tuck it into bed

In this moment
I can feel only the grace of the world around me
This calm, this light, this air, this body
This sunset

Michael Guy Bowman: (composer, SoundCloud description)

This is a chill-as-ice spoken word track commissioned by Leigh-Ann Peach called "This Sunset". If "Awake" is my ode to dawn, this is my ode to dusk. The original request is as follows:

"I'd like a song about being happy for the sake of it, featuring blue skies and space. Because those two things are cool. anything hopeful and would cheer people up if they were sad too."

Enjoy.
