evening

angie fights crime

what is this darkness now, blurring out my eyes
can I hold this feeling before I’m lost in the night
holding on together searching through the gloom
who am I to blame now that we have lost the light

not the sky, falling, not the moon, again
not the waves, crashing, not the stars, see them fade, away

where am I to go now that this dream has come to pass
see the distant cloud roll in and blank out the sky
for weeks I’ve lived within this hidden shang gra la
how can I return so low when I have been so high

in the sky, flying, o’er the moon, again
through the waves, crashing, catch the stars, before they fade

whisper to the passing ships to carry me away
whisper to the glowing moon there has to be away
before we fade, away

the end is always gentle like the sand beneath our feet
we gather all together and prepare to quietly leave
the road back home is long and gives us time to think
remembering the magic and how we now believe

in the sky, soaring, to the moon, again
past the waves, crashing, catch the stars, they’ll never fade
in the sky, soaring, to the moon, again
past the waves, crashing, catch the stars, before they fade, away
