MOMENTS - HOME             Elsa - 8 O'Clock

evening shadows
            porchlights bright
evening walking
            dog by my side
  no longer hungry
  not yet tired

it's eight o'clock
            and I'm just fine

sunset's gone
            the sky still glows
evening strolling
            moving along slow
  no longer thinking
  not yet asleep

it's eight o'clock
            shadows are deep

windows are lit
            people sit outside
couples move in silence
            I linger and smile
  not longer lonely
  yet still alone

eight o'clock
            soon I'll head home

eight o'clock
eight o'clock
            the best time
            the very best time

evening shadows
            porchlights bright
evening walking
            dog by my side
  no longer hungry
  not yet tired

eight o'clock
            and I'm just fine
