[Verse 1]
Sunsets over the beaches
From now on
Each day
Looking for new ways
To go on
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I should drop by
Maybe I should have called
Maybe I should have followed you
And beat down your door
Maybe it's gonna be breakin' you
Every time you fall
[Chorus]
But to shower you with pity
Will do you no good at all
No good at all
[Verse 2]
Slow burn
Watching the world turn

New way of measuring each day
Until it's gone
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I should drop by
Maybe I should have called
Maybe I should have followed you
And beat down your door
Maybe it's gonna be breakin' you
Every time you fall
[Chorus]
But to shower you with pity
Will do you no good at all
No good at all
[Verse 3]
Sunrise, building a reprise
With my heart
Regret, tight around my chest
Plays its part
Until it's gone
Yeah, until it's gone
[Chorus]
But to shower you with pity
Would do you no good at all
No good at all
[Refrain]
Now we're watching the sunset, sunset, sunset, sunset
Over the beaches, beaches, beaches, beaches
Watching the sunset, sunset, sunset, sunset
Over the beaches, beaches, beaches, beaches
[Refrain]
Watching the sunset, sunset, sunset, sunset
Over the beaches, beaches, beaches, beaches
Watching the sunset, sunset, sunset, sunset
Over the beaches, beaches, beaches, beaches
