Evening: The Sun Set: Twilight Time

Track B2
 
Evening: I. The Sun Set (0:00 - 3:14) [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] When the sun goes down and the clouds all frown Night has begun for the sunset See it with your eyes, Earth re-energised By the sun's rays everyday Take a look out there, planets everywhere [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] 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 [Bridge] 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 [Instrumental Outro] [Instrumental Interlude] II. "Twilight Time" (3:15 - 6:38) [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Twilight time, to dream awhile In veils of deepening blue As fantasy strides over colourful skies The form disappearing from view [Chorus] In twilight time Dream with me awhile [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] In twilight time Dream with me awhile In twilight time Dream with me awhile [Bridge] Building castles in the air Whistling to the wind As nature bows down her head See what tomorrow brings [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] In twilight time Dream with me awhile [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus/Outro] In twilight time Dream with me awhile... [Instrumental Outro/Interlude]
