It is the evening

after day I sit and watch

the children play

Smilin' faces

I can see

But not for me

I sit and watch as tears go by

My richest can't bye everything (?)

I want to hear the children sing

All I hear is the sound

Of rain fallin' on the ground

I sit and watch as tears go by

It is the evening

after day I sit and watch

the children play

I'm doin' things

I used to do

They think

I knew

I sit and watch as teary go by

Smilin' faces

I can see

But not for me

I sit and watch as tears go by
