Slowly Fading Evening Sun
Gift Horse Mouth

Now the songbirds were still singing,nAs dusk shrouded the room,nI thought Iï¿½d take a picture,nOf the sun from out the gloom,nAnd did I tick and time it,nAnd place it with the rest,nAnd show it to an angel,nï¿½Cos I know she knows best.nnOh darling, shall we go and get things done,nOr would you rather sit and watch the slowly fading evening sun?nnNow we had to get to be there,nAnd you know what itï¿½s all about,nWhen the people bring their things in,nBefore we even checked ï¿½em out.nAnd they said there is no pressure,nBut we need a place to live,nAnd though I might forget it,nI know I'll never forgive.nnOh darling, shall we go and get things done,nOr would you rather sit and watch the slowly fading evening sun?nnNow Iï¿½d been there for a short while,nBefore that angel came along,nWho filled my mind with passion,nAs she filled my heart with song,nAnd the wicked one she questioned,nHow she could stay for free,nSo I made the suggestion,nShe should come and stay with me.nnOh darling, shall we go and get things done,nOr would you rather sit and watch the slowly fading evening sun?nnNow the terror of the tenants,nTold us what it was about,nShe said you both need your own space,nSo Iï¿½ll be shipping out.nBut Iï¿½ll have to put the rent up,nYou see the mortgage must be paid,nAnd like fools we agreed to,nThe worst mistake weï¿½d ever made.nnOh darling, shall we go and get things done,nOr would you rather sit and watch the slowly fading evening sun?nnDidnï¿½t take long to get settled,nDidnï¿½t take long to get to this,nAnd we made such preparations,nFor a life of joy and bliss.nBut the tenantï¿½s terror decided,nWhat true love was all about,nShe said sheï¿½d be returning,nAnd weï¿½d have to get out.nnOh darling, shall we go and get things done,nOr would you rather sit and watch the slowly fading evening sun?nnNow the landlord was a preacher,nA very wealthy man of God,nAnd how the camel would fit through the needle,nWell I found it kind of odd.nBut he treated us so sweetly,nYes the pastor was very kind,nHe said as soon as he first met us,nHeï¿½d already made up his mind.nnOh darling, shall we go and get things done,nOr would you rather sit and watch the slowly fading evening sun?nnWell at first it all seemed perfect,nWe were liberated at last.nBut with the artist and shift-worker,nWell it all turned bad so fast.nAnd we just kept it quiet,nWe kept it bottled in,nAnd when the artist just got noisier,nWe just lived with the din.nnOh darling, shall we go and get things done,nOr would you rather sit and watch the slowly fading evening sun?nnAnd one night they were fighting,nAnd he yelled a slammed the door,nThatï¿½s when we both decided,nWe couldnï¿½t take it any more.nAnd that is when she spotted,nSomewhere worth much more than it seems,nI guess we finally got to,nThe destination of our dreams.nnOh darling, shall we go and get things done,nOr would you rather sit and watch the slowly fading evening sun?
