I'm still mad at a 13-year-old song about now-obsolete technology

Yes, it's stupid to complain about a song from 2012, about a technology that is mostly obsolete no less, but I heard "Payphone" by Maroon 5 a billion times back then, so here I go!

Still stuck in that time when we called it love
But even the sun sets in paradise

This line has always bothered me. "Even the sun sets in paradise" implies that there are many things that set in paradise, and the sun is one of them, but not the most obvious.

What he probably meant was "The sun sets even in paradise," which makes sense as something to say. But you can't just rearrange the words in a sentence to fit the meter and expect it to mean the same thing, Adam Levine!
