Our Evening

When the sun is glowing in the west
And cotton curtains glow a worn orange
That is when I'll take you close
Time will be our friend

While light is in the sky
Treasure is before our eyes
The cascades of a reflective city
The gently loved truth of a small apartment

What little that we own
Comes together to make a life
The last rays of sun makes us whole
Completes the last part of the picture

The sun will drop out of sight and sigh upon the horizon
Leaving otherworldly greens and blues
But these colours of disquiet that hover in the sky
Cannot pierce our cotton curtains

Candles become our little suns
That illuminate our world
A bed that is too small for two
Because it's made for one

Together when the day is done
