lyrics

Evening has broken.
Summer’s died in your arms,
grab the wrist, feel a pulse,
lowering as you draw in close.

Evening has broken.
but you look the same,
they say you can’t remember a goddamned thing.

but I saw looking at me,
something that I knew.
They said you’d made your exit,
but that couldn’t be true.

Evening has broken.
Still, I acted surprised,
when the daylight eased away,
the call came in on the millionaire’s balcony,
and such a rush would crush those temples,
eyes drained white to petrified gray.

Evening has broken.
There wasn’t much left to give,
but I kept my light on,
I held my door ajar,
just to keep a place for you,
if you made your way to the back porch.

In a pose like a sentry.
Some stone-eyed gargoyle,
I stood in the threshold,
and I stood between worlds,
when evening has broken.
