Richard Rodgers
Loneliness of Evening
[NELLIE]
Mmm, mmm, mmm
I wake in the loneliness of sunrise
When the deep purple heaven turns blue
And start to pray
As I pray each day
That I’ll hear some word from you
I lie in the loneliness of evening
Looking out on a silver-flaked sea
And ask the moon
Oh how soon, how soon
Will my love come home to me
Will my love come home to me
*Instrumental*
I lie in the loneliness of evening
Looking out on a silver-flaked sea
And ask the moon
Oh how soon, how soon
Will my love come home to me
Will my love come home to me
