Janis Ian - Evening Star lyrics

All our good times have been had
And there’s nothing more to be said
I don’t like being trite
But I love you, I love you

When my evening star comes around again
You won’t find me sitting where I
Was when you first came

When my evening star tells me
It’s time for a change
The words may change, and the song may change
And love will be the same

And grow tired burning
Tomorrow’s fires in yesterday flame

Good times, bad times
Think of all our good times
Measured with the bad times

When my evening star comes around to say
Once upon you had someone, gone now

The light goes out and the stage is set
Stand by me anyway

I need a lover who
Won’t want to bother with yesterday flame

Good time, bad time
Think of all our good time
Measured with the bad time

All our good times have been had
And there’s nothin’ more to be said
I don’t like being trite
But I loved you and I love you
Yes I do, I loved you, and I love you
