Fading beyond miles and city blocks
Eight, nine, and ten o'clock
Stretching tight across nighttime skies
Shadows unveil my evening eyes
Centuries of moon and any direction
It's half four on the run just like
I sigh for what we are
I cry for what we're not
Haze of true and bitter blue
I tried and tried but I forgot
Guess it's just my evening eyes and I
My made up rhymes and slow steps meet
Tired lines by smoky streets
When evening spreads against the sky
Let's go now just you and I
Centuries of moon and any direction
It's half four on the run just like
I sigh for what we are
I cry for what we're not
Haze of true and bitter blue
I tried and tried but I forgot
Guess it's just my evening eyes and I
Evening eyes
Evening eyes
Evening eyes
Evening eyes, ooh
