Evening, I see the sun
Leaving today
Cool night, mellow light
Don’t fade away

Your eyes, paradise
What do they say
Leaving, loving
Stay one more day

And after all the tears have fallen my way
You’d think that we could never feel the same
Love is strange
Pick up the pieces again

Long time, friend of mine
Words of farewell
Love is, the learning
I knew you well

And after all the tears have fallen my way
You’d think that we could never feel the same
Love is strange
Pick up the pieces again

Pick up the pieces
