Vespers

I'd like to think about her and the way she used to love me

But I just can't live without her 'cause her arms are not around me

And the season's getting later and my body's getting colder

And the vespers ring and I'm all alone, without my love beside me

She'd call me in the evenin', ask me to come over

She'd be standing by the window, with her hair down around her shoulder

We'd talk a while and then she'd smile, then she'd lock the door

And she would sit beside me and we would talk no more

The bells would ring at six o'clock and she'd be in my arms

Her head upon my shoulder, gently resting

Then she'd wake and look at me not knowing I'd been watching

Kiss me softly, then drift off to sleep

She'd call me in the evenin' and ask me to come over

She'd be standing by the window, with her hair down around her shoulder

We'd talk a while and then she'd smile, then she'd lock the door

And she would sit beside me and we would talk no more
