It's
the twilight time of evening,
Before
the sun goes down.
I
like to watch and listen,
To
all the sights and sounds.
There's
a sweet smell in the air,
When
comes the gentle breeze,
It
brushes back my hair,
And
shakes the mighty trees.
I
look to the horizon,
The
sun is giving way.
And
now the night is coming,
It
brings a proud display.
Soon
will come the shadows,
The
stars and yes the moon.
The
chirping of the cricket,
The
crying of the loon.
For
now my eyes are cast on,
The
setting of the sun,
The
shades of orange and yellow,
Before
the day is done.
I
bid adieu to daytime,
I
say hello to night,
So
clear is it this evening,
The
stars will be so bright.
It's
the twilight of the evening
And
the sun is going down.
I
love to see the vista,
Where
the skyline meets the ground.
There's
just one thing more beautiful
The
start of a new day.
For
it means , but one thing
Another
twilight on the way.
