A Little Night Music: The Sun Won't Set (Night Waltz I)

2 views

Lyrics

The sun sits low
 Diffusing its usual glow
 Five o'clock, twilight
 Vespers sound and it's six o'clock
 Twilight all around
 But the sun sits low
 As low it's going to go
 Eight o'clock
 Twilight
 How enthralling! It's
 Nine o'clock
 Twilight
 Slowly crawling towards
 Ten o'clock
 Twilight
 Crickets calling
 The vespers ring
 The nightingale's waiting to sing
 The rest of us wait on a string
 Perpetual sunset is rather an unsettling thing
 ♪
 The sun won't set
 It's fruitless to hope or to fret
 It's dark as it's going to get
 The hands on the clock turn
 But don't sing a nocturne just yet
