Night Falls

Steel Train

Time has shown its face

Too many words

Too many hopes and too much we've learned



Life won't wait in comfortable chairs

You look so bleak without a care



Sometimes her eyes close before nightfall

And sometimes my eyes close before nightfall

Cancer calls



Dancing on the seams

Leaves from a tree, all that fades and all that we feed



I can be brave if you can be bare

Stripping the life and taking what's there



Take these wings and learn to fly

Hold these eyes which never cry

Watch on me just like a child
