ARLO GUTHRIE - CHILLING OF THE EVENING lyrics

rate me

words and music by Arlo Guthrie

Warm me from the wind and take my haand

A song is sounding, softly singing

My song is cast upon the rainbow waves

Forever splashing in the sunlight

Prove to me there's a love still left

In all of this emptiness around me

Take me from the chilling of the evening

Though you know my love that I must go

A-following the winds that blow inside me

I've nowhere left to run or hide

Except if you will come and run beside me

And even if you do there'll be a lot for us to do

To keep believing

Take me from the chilling of the evening

And now my time has come down many streets

I'm coming from a night decaying

The song that itself sings is all alone

I cannot even hear it playing

Now to leave before I understand

Just what it is I'm leaving

Take me from the chilling of the evening
