Let Evening Come Lyrics by Ricky Ian Gordon

Late Afternoon

0

Let the light of late afternoon
Shine through chinks in the barn, moving
Up the bales as the sun moves down
Let the cricket take up chafing
As a woman takes up her needles
And her yarn. Let evening come
Let dew collect on the hoe abandoned
In the long grass. Let the stars appear
And the moon disclose her silver horn
Let the fox go back to its sandy den
Let the wind die down. Let the shed
Go black inside. Let evening come
To the bottle in the ditch, to the scoop
In the oats, to air in the lung
Let evening come
