Al Stewart - End of the Day lyrics
[Al Stewart - End of the Day lyrics]
And in the evening when the day goes down
She leaves the bright house lights
Stands and watches with her
Coat pulled around
At torches light the western skies
Sometimes she thinks she knows
Him just too well
Other times not much at all
They live their lives in some familiar spell
And catch each other when they fall
Nothing lasts, well she knows, try to hang on
When it's gone, you'll be burned
Fashions and friends come and go
Everyone travels that road in their turn
She wants to run out where
The day meets the night
Far beyond these midwest farms
But she'll be with him till
The day she finds
A stranger lying in her arms
She leaves the bright house lights
Stands and watches with her
Coat pulled around
At torches light the western skies
Sometimes she thinks she knows
Him just too well
Other times not much at all
They live their lives in some familiar spell
And catch each other when they fall
Nothing lasts, well she knows, try to hang on
When it's gone, you'll be burned
Fashions and friends come and go
Everyone travels that road in their turn
She wants to run out where
The day meets the night
Far beyond these midwest farms
But she'll be with him till
The day she finds
A stranger lying in her arms
