DAYFADE
Written by Sara So Far
The day passed by so quietly
Now it walks out on its toes
Without anybody noticing
Or wondering where it goes
It sneaks around the corner
Draws away from sight
Doesn’t linger to welcome in
The darkening face of night
The eveningsun is flirting with the rooftops
But they don’t give a sign of life
Standing tall, unwilling as ever
To play and dance with the fading light
Go down, fair lady
Carress the grass one last time as you leave
Cast a last glance before the night comes to steal your light away
Like an ordinary thief
Now it’s starting to get dark
And dark is for night
and I know night is for sleeping
But I’m still on this train
Rolling away from the light
As the colours of the sky are deepening
The eveningsun is flirting with the rooftops
But they don’t give a sign of life
Standing tall, unwilling as ever
To play and dance with the fading light
Go down, fair lady
Carress the grass one last time as you leave
Cast a last glance before the night comes to steal your light away
Like an ordinary thief
Let us meet where the ocean meets the sky
Where they merge into perfect unity
Drift away into the realm between low and high
Where their colours melt into harmony
I would ask the sun to stall and illuminate your lovely face
And the colours of the sky to fly and capture our common gaze
But as the seasons roll on by and the sun runs out its course
The coming of the night is inevitable it will come to call upon us all
Go down, fair lady
Carress the grass one last time as you leave
Cast a last glance before the night comes to steal your light away
Like an ordinary thief
