Lyrics
NIGHTFALL
Don't know how to treat you, girl
It's enough to make me weep
But lovin' don't come easy
The way is long and steep
I'd let myself flow with you
But your waters run too deep
True love hurts the hardest
'Cause there's nothing it'll let you keep
I'm drifting twixt the stars and hell
Trying to stay on my feet
And your name goes round my head again
And I can't get to sleep
There's a bar just on the corner
Where the nightfall creatures creep
And I'm gonna get me wasted
'Cause the liquor there is cheap
There's a rainbow in an old man's eyes
Bloodstains on the street
Girl, I love you like an emperor
When I crawl home in a tangled heap
And I'm dreamin' of you, darlin'
As I'm countin' drunken sheep

Don't know how to treat you, girl

But lovin' don't come easy
The way is long and steep
I'd let myself flow with you
But your waters run too deep
True love hurts the hardest
'Cause there's nothing it'll let you keep
I'm drifting twixt the stars and hell
Trying to stay on my feet
And your name goes round my head again
And I can't get to sleep
There's a bar just on the corner
Where the nightfall creatures creep
And I'm gonna get me wasted
'Cause the liquor there is cheap
There's a rainbow in an old man's eyes
Bloodstains on the street
Girl, I love you like an emperor
When I crawl home in a tangled heap
And I'm dreamin' of you, darlin'
As I'm countin' drunken sheep

Beautiful opening leading to your warm, musical vocal. Lyrics present strong images. Gentle orchestration gives a soft sadness to everything. This is very impressive, Richard! Thanks for the download.
