By the Time It Gets Dark (home demo) Songtext
von Sandy Denny

Baby, every cloud has a silver lining

Baby every dog really has his day
And it matters to me to see you smiling
Why dont we blow all your cares away?

Yesterday is gone and will be forgotten

And today is where every new day starts

Got to be free as the leaves in autumn
You may be sad but it never lasts.

And maybe, by the evening well be laughing
Just wait and see


All the changes therell be
By the time it gets dark.
We could go walking out in the sunshine

Look at all the people out in the street
Hurrying away to a business luncheon
Waiting for a taxi for aching feet.

Light up your face, baby, lets get going
Want to see a change in those weary eyes
Well have some fun, take a boat out rowing
Why on earth should life be so serious?

And maybe, by the evening well be laughing
Just wait and see
All the changes therell be
By the time it gets dark.
