lyrics

Now the sun is closing up
shop for the day
and the birds falling silent
tuck their wings away
but there’s one in my tree
who still has more to say
and he sings so sweet,
it’s the song to beat
you could have sold it for gold
but he just gives it away.

Meet me down on the corner
at the old café
where we’ve smiled as we’ve whiled
so many hours away.
Though the time may draw near
when we’ve no more to say
I want to see your face,
in this familiar place…
I’ve got some dreams left in my pocket
I want to give away.

I hear the night choir rehearsal
on the vesper breeze
and I have to pause for the moment
and let it wash over me.

All the birds have come down
from the sky today
and the evening falls silent,
empty, cold and gray.
Though these hours bear no profit,
still we pay and pay
with our life’s blood gold
and the hopes that we’ve sold.
We have a chance to break even
but why don’t we give it away?

Give it away.
