Gentle Waves, The - Evensong Lyrics lyrics

rate me

For a bit of loyalty

I would pay you handsomely

While you're killing time

You could help fill mine

With a bit of honesty

If you're feeling kind of beat

If you're feeling incomplete

Don't be too surprised

Open up your eyes

There's a harsh reality

When a person's sad and lonely

Sometimes they will cry

When the sun comes out to meet them

Then their tears run dry

And it's nearly not so bad

When you learn of how to add up

All the good around

And you can paint the town

With a sad kind of beauty

When a person's sad and lonely

Sometimes they will cry

When the sun comes out to meet them

Then their tears run dry

Life is hard and life is cruel

If you often blow your cool

When hope lets you down

And you feel a clown

For there's little honesty

For a bit of loyalty

I would pay you handsomely

With music as sweet as wine

Rapture that's divine

If you keep me company

You could sing along with my evensong

It might ease the drudgery
