it is the evening of the day
i sit and watch the children play
smiling faces i can see
but not for me
i sit and watch as tears go by
my riches can’t buy everything
i want to hear the children sing
all i hear is the sound
of rain falling on the ground
i sit and watch as tears go by
it is the evening of the day
i sit and watch the children play
doing things i used to do
they think are new
i sit and watch as tears go by
