TWILIGHT SONG
     Copyright c 1998 John Trubee

 
     From the daylight oozes twilight
     Out of twilight creeps the darkness
     Everyone I've ever known
     Slowly drifts away from me
     Til I stand, a puzzled orphan,
     By the whisp'ring sea

     Western sky explodes in silence 
     Far above the puny humans
     Ocean clouds escape the sun
     In dusky sky, in silence, run
     Til waves of clouds descend
     Into the darkening eve

     Time flows on
     It changes everything
     It transforms all the world
     Til nothing known still remains

     Ever flowing through the darkness
     Mystery ship of utter starkness
     Everything I've ever seen
     Slowly drifts away from me
     And sinks, forever lost,
     Beneath the evening tide

     Time flows on
     It changes everything
     It transforms all the world
     Til nothing known still remains
