Evening Darkness come to me Tower of the cathedral Cast your shadow over the land Little dusty streets and houses will be swallowed by the cool of Evening Darkness seep through every man The cinema is dark and empty The doors are closed right down The projectionist is drunk somewhere In a room in the middle of town Evening Darkness come to me No one hears you lonely man Pace the frozen streets White washed dummies stare at you It's Evening Darkness calm this lonely man Somewhere man and woman Touch each other silently In a lovers' double bed But the sheets are black like life that ends at Evening Darkness come to me I can greet you with a smile Despite the lights of town For I know that everything must end And evening Is the symbol Of the end of my day
