WHENEVER A ROAD

I STOOD TO FACE IT ALL

I LIFTED MYSELF UP

EACH TIME I FELL

YOU SAW ME DOWN

YOU SAW MY FACE

IN THE CLOUDS

LOOKING FOR THE SUN

 

YOU SHOWED ME

SO MANY LIVES

I COULD CHOOSE

A FEW CLEVER LINES

THAT I COULD USE

YOU LIT THE FUSE

WHENEVER A ROAD

I'M THERE TO SEE

WHERE THE ENDING

MIGHT BE

AS LONG AS

I'M STILL FREE 

 

I WATCHED A TRAIN

I SAW IT COME

AND THEN 

I WATCHED IT GO

INTO THE SETTING SUN

THE RAILS AGLOW

LEFT ALONE

ITS SOON DARK

THE STARS ABOVE

THIS PLACE

THIS PARK

AT THE MERCY OF

ALL THE MAGIC 

OF THE NIGHT 

UNTIL IT COMES TO PASS

MAY IT BE LONG AT LAST 

 

 

  

EVENING GLOW

 

EVENING GLOW

YOU REACHED OUT

AND TOOK MY HAND

TOLD ME OF

ALL OF YOUR PLANS 

QUITE SIMPLE AND PLAIN 

MORE SUNSHINE

 THAN RAIN 

MORE SMILES

 THAN FROWNS  

MORE UPS THAN DOWNS 

 

CLEAR FROM THE START

STRAIGHT TO THE HEART

THE EVENING GLOW

A SETTING SUN

IN PINK AND RED

ALL YOU ARE

ALL YOU SAID

EVERYTHING SO KIND

 I STILL THANK GOD

YOU'RE MINE

 

THE NIGHT SKIES 

REFLECTED IN YOUR EYES

SETS THE MOOD

MAKES ME SMILE

THE WORLD SLOWS DOWN

JUST A BIT

AS I PULL YOU CLOSER

WAS IT YOU THAT SAID

YOU DON'T NEED TO

EVER BE BLUE

THE EVENING GLOW

SURE LOOKS GOOD

 ON YOU 

 

 

  

TAKE MY WISH

TAKE MY WISH

DRAGGING MY FEET

INTO DAYS I THOUGHT

WOULD NEVER END

BIDING MY TIME

BEST AS I COULD

ITS SO HARD

TO PRETEND

TO HIDE

MY BROKEN SELF

JUST GO ON LIKE

ITS ALL FINE

 

SHOW YOU 

THAT I'M STRONG

TAKE MY PLACE

IN LINE

SURELY MY TURN

IS SOON

ITS TIME

SEASONS CHANGE

AND SUMMERS MINE

WARM SUNNY DAYS 

SO FINE

 

WAITING FOR 

ANOTHER SOUL LIKE MINE 

WHEN I'M ASLEEP

LOST IN A DREAM

SO DEEP I MIGHT

NOT HEAR YOU CALL

COME RIGHT IN THAT'S ALL

ITS TIME

SEASONS CHANGE

AND SUMMERS MINE

SEE YOU SOON

TAKE MY WISH

MAKE IT TRUE
