John Martyn - In The Evening Lyrics






She was the moon and my unveiling
And needed she did watch me grow
Now she's walking where it's shady
Seems so strange to watch her go

And all but the time keeps happening on
Love keeps singing a song in the evening

Slowly fading gently jaded
And sliding evening of my eye
Boats are leaving leaves are crumbling
And autumn's here and trying to cry

And all but the time keeps happening on
Love keeps singing a song in the evening

Going faster getting older
And all the time is just today
Got so many ways to see it
Not so many ways to say

The time keeps happening on
Love keeps singing a song in the evening

    Right with you. I just heard about this and tuned in. What a pleasure. Has a Bless The Weather feel to it as well ~ that gentle, innocent side of the man. A beauty. Going straight on my Solid Air playlist! (-:

    I cannot express how utterly beautiful this song is and how happy I am to finally find it uploaded to the tube! John, you cheeky bugger, never a dry when I listen to this.
