“Loneliness of Evening” LYRICS
I wake in the loneliness of sunrise
When the deep purple heaven turns blue
And start to pray, as I pray each day,
That I’ll hear some word from you.
I lie in the loneliness of evening
Looking out on a silver flaked sea
And ask the moon, oh how soon, how soon
Will my love appear to me?
I ask the moon, oh how soon, how soon
Will my love appear to me?
Will my love appear to me?
