Lyrics
EVENING SONG
I pull down the drapes
The day is ending
Slippery like a trout
My hand unable to hold it
I see it disappear
Can?t add any more to it
Now it's like a sentence in a book
About a straw moving
For a moment in the breeze
One pearl more
Missing from the chain
I was given long ago
Tomorrow
I?ll receive another day
Until the drapes are drawn again
And I start weaving my net again
