When the Evening Finds You
Moonlight, a chair by the window and songs for the quieter part of the day.
When the Evening Finds You
Track 1 of 12
Lyrics
The afternoon is slowly fading
Shadows stretching on the wall
People rushing through the station
I don't hurry much at all
There’s a quiet little moment
When the noisy day is through
And the first star of the evening
Makes me think again of you
Somewhere far across the skyline
Where the twilight turns to blue
When the evening finds you
Under Madrid’s silver moon
Little owl, are you listening
To the same soft tune?
When the evening finds you
And the day is finally through
There’s a guitar in the distance
Still singing just for you
Coffee cups and dusty sidewalks
Warm wind drifting through the street
Someone laughing from a window
Summer air and city heat
But my thoughts are flying softly
Like a bird the whole night through
Across mountains, roads and rivers
Till they rest somewhere with you
When the evening finds you
Under Madrid’s silver moon
Little owl, are you listening
To the same soft tune?
When the evening finds you
And the day is finally through
There’s a guitar in the distance
Still singing just for you
Maybe songs are only bridges
Made of words and simple chords
But sometimes they travel farther
Than a thousand spoken words
When the evening finds you
And the quiet stars appear
Little owl, if you listen
You might hear me here
When the evening finds you
And the night begins to grow
There’s a gentle bluesman playing
Just to let you know
