IT IS THE EVENING OF THE DAY
I SIT AND WATCH THE CHILDREN PLAY
SMILING FACES I CAN SEE
BUT NOT FOR ME
I SIT AND WATCH
AS TEARS GO BY
MY RICHES CAN'T BUY EVERYTHING
I WANT TO HEAR THE CHILDREN SING
ALL I HEAR IS THE SOUND
OF RAIN FALLING ON THE GROUND
I SIT AND WATCH
AS TEARS GO BY
IT IS THE EVENING OF THE DAY
I SIT AND WATCH THE CHILDREN PLAY
DOIN' THINGS I USED TO DO
THEY THINK ARE NEW
I SIT AND WATCH
AS TEARS GO BY
