So Far Away From Day
The symphony has started
and the darkness does descend
the world succumbs to quietude
the day has reached its end
The nighttime woods are glittering
and offer up a show
a dazzling performance
by the fireflies, aglow
Along the breeze the crickets sound
that all is well tonight
as whippoorwills send out their songs
in blackness, out of sight
The nighttime sky is sparkling
and offers up a show
a dazzling performance
of a galaxy, aglow
And all is still within my soul
so far away from day
I rest my head so wearily
and dream my cares away
