Song of Evening Songtext
von Magna Carta

Pastel shades the hour
When evening climbs the sky
And burns a golden highway
To the west
And the distant city sounds
Caress the trembling leaves
To die among the far horizon shores


Then the song of evening comes in gentle harmony
Lingers till the closing of the day
Just a song of evening flows on like some tumbling river
And like a river flows away

I look beyond the windows
Where twisted shadows play
And trees are bare below the frozen stars
A stranger hurries through the cold
His collar round his ears
Dreaming words of comfort and of fire

Then the song of evening comes in gentle harmony
Lingers till the closing of the day
Just a song of evening flows on like some tumbling river
And like a river flows away
