It is the evening of the day,
|
I sit and watch the children play.
|
Smiling faces I can see
|
But not for me,
|
I sit and watch as tears go by.
|
|
My riches can't buy everything,
|
I want to hear the children sing.
|
All I hear is the sound
|
Of rain falling on the ground,
|
I sit and watch as tears go by.
|
|
It is the evening of the day,
|
I sit and watch the children play.
|
Doing things I used to do
|
They think are new,
|
I sit and watch as tears go by.
|
|
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
|
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
|
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm ...
