Evening Song Lyrics

Stevie Holland Evening Song

He called me the other day
Without too many words to say
(just) We’re open for business this Christmas,
Do you think you’ll be coming this way?..

So many months of silence
So many days of pride
One little call just ended it all and narrowed the great divide
So many worlds between us
So much alike are we
Why do we let the anger get so far that we can’t see?

It may not mean he’s sorry
It may not mean I’m right
It may just mean he loves me
And doesn’t want to fight
It may not last forever
What does in this world?
It may just mean a father wants to see his girl

Warm summers in the garden
Music would fill the air
There was a time of beauty and rhyme when magic was ours to share
Life moves along too quickly
When will we ever learn
Soon comes good-bye, with no reason why and yesterdays can’t return

It may not mean he’s sorry
It may not mean I’m right
It may just mean he loves me
And doesn’t want to fight
It may not last forever
What does in this world
It may just mean a father
It may just mean a father
It may just mean a father simply wants see his girl
