Afterglow

歌詞

Vespers bell tolls day's departure Resounding its plaintive knell The cowherd drives his cattle homewards As sunlight bids a fading farewell. Warm afterglow, how discreetly you flow Casting twilight's halo, on the dimming day. Calm afterglow, bathe each hill and hedgerow In a scarlet shadow, slipping slowly grey. Shirehorse ploughs one final furrow Gaping nostrils snorting steam, The yearling bows her head in slumber While Sandman spurs a world to dream. Warm afterglow, how discreetly you flow Casting twilight's halo, on the dimming day. Calm afterglow, bathe each hill and hedgerow In a scarlet shadow, slipping slowly grey. Advent of night, Soothing sight, Seaman's delight. Bustling woodland slows to stillness, Quiet save for the blackbird's cry A crimson aura braids the skyline Urging languid day to die. Warm afterglow, how discreetly you flow Casting twilight's halo, on the dimming day. Calm afterglow, bathe each hill and hedgerow In a scarlet shadow, slipping slowly grey.
