Matthew Ryan

Matthew Ryan (born Ryan Webb; November 7, 1971) is an American alternative country singer-songwriter. Ryan has also collaborated with Neilson Hubbard to form the band Strays Don't Sleep. Ryan's voice has been described as a "hushed rasp, with words catching like vows destined to be broken - one of modern music's most potent whispers." Like the Jayhawks, Son Volt and other artists from the late 1990s alternative country scene, Ryan has a dedicated following but only limited commercial success. more »

I can't bear the thought of ever going back
My head was full of nails my heart was broke and black
I never understood that glimmering you chased
I found it useless so i turned and walked away

Where were you when the sun went down
Where were you when that sense of loss left town
I don't care if you're worried now
It's too late

The wind blew through the square last night like haunted souls
Flags were snapping hard and rattling their poles
I drove down third street and it felt like i was gone
The ghosts of things we said were smoking on the lawn

Where were you when the sun went down
Where were you when all that hope left town
I don't care if you want me now
It's too late
It's too late
 
And so it goes
Watch it go
Watch it go
And you won't know
Until you know

I hold no grudge no more though i did for a couple of years
The hate you harbor only welcomes what you fear
I wrote this song while the sun fell behind the hill
The stars look cold but there's a warm light on the sill

Where were you when the sun went down
Where were you when that sense of loss left town
I don't care if you want me now
It's too late
It's too late
