Intro

Why must you shed such tender tears

In the evening of your years

No other love could stem the tide

Of the loneliness I hide

Open your heart and let me live

All the promises I could give

The sun and moon and all the stars

They bow down to you whenever you pass

In a world of fading sadness

An emerald ring, a photograph

That look in your eyes the brush of your cheek

These are the moments in life that I seek

No reason or rhyme, no presence of mind

Just a dance to the music of time

Why must you shed such tender tears

In the evening of your years

No other love could stem the tide

Of the loneliness I hide

Inside out, upside down

Obscured by clouds, or underground

The sun and moon and all the stars

They bow down to you whenever you pass

Wherever you are, whenever you speak

These are the moments in my life that I seek

No reason or rhyme, by chance or design

Just a dance to the music of time
