Evening Clothes

Lyrics

There’s something easy in the way that you please me this evening in your hat of white.
Your Spanish belt suits you well, so I tell you quite freely, I’d like to see it by the morning light.
Come meet the dawn with your evening clothes on. The day don’t have to end with the day.
Tonight’s got a light of it’s own, and besides, the morning’s just an evening away.

There’s something fitting in the sun as it’s sitting on horizons that outline your face.
Don’t take stock in the clock, it’s just something that’s ticking behind the walk and the talk that we make.
When there’s no reason to go, then there’s no reason to go.
It ain’t our business to spin just where the sunshine has been.
Because the way that it goes is just the way that it goes.
Don’t let the dark comin in mean that we’re parting again.
Come meet the dawn with your evening clothes on. The day don’t have to end with the day.
Tonight’s got a light of it’s own, and besides, the morning’s just an evening away.

There’s something holy in the way that you hold me tonight. I could be baptized by dew.
If you could try not to fly as the sky begins gloaming, I could give myself wholly to you.
When there’s no reason to go, then there’s no reason to go.
It ain’t our business to spin just where the sunshine has been.
Because the way that it goes is just the way that it goes.
Don’t let the dark comin in mean that we’re parting again.
Come meet the dawn with your evening clothes on. The day don’t have to end with the day.
Tonight’s got a light of it’s own, and besides, the morning’s just an evening away.
