chilling of the evening
Singer:arlo guthrie
warm me from the wind and take my hand
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 all 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
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 know i'm leaving
take me from the chilling of the evening
