The Moody Blues - Evening lyrics

When the sun goes down, and the clouds all frown Night has begun for the sunset See it with your eyes, Earth's re-energized By the sun's rays everyday Take a look out there, planets everywhere When the sun goes down, and the clouds all frown Night has begun for the sunset Shadows on the ground, never make a sound Fading away in the sunset Night has now become day for everyone I can see it all, from this great height I can feel the sun, slipping out of sight And the world still goes on through the night Twilight time to dream awhile In veils of deepening blue As fantasy strides, over colourful skies Of form disappearing from view In twilight time, dream with me awhile A nightingale plays a dark mellow phrase Of notes that are rich and so true An aerial display by the firefly brigade Dancing to tunes no one knew In twilight time, dream with me awhile In twilight time, dream with me awhile Building castles in the air Whistling to the wind As nature bows down her head See what tomorrow brings In twilight time, dream with me awhile Bats take to wing like puppets on string Prancing through cool evening air In a sightless glide, no reason to hide Away from the sun's blinding stare In twilight time, dream with me awhile In twilight time, dream with me awhile
