At the Ending

At the ending of the day When night’s shadows fall so gray Twill see the darkness of the night Until the break of morn’s new light When the sun sets behind the cloud I’ll wrap myself up in my shroud For where has all my reasoning fled Could it have flowed out when my heart bled When my husband broke my heart And then my life all fell apart Twas the beginning of the night At the ending of the day’s light I tried to make this marriage last But all my efforts are in the past Divorce is now my final step I’ve finished crying out for help So now night’s shadows have fallen gray Tis at the ending of the day At the beginning of the night So far away from morning’s light
