Late one evening.

thought I got rid of the pain
it's back again and it's back late
in the evening when almost all is done
and I am about to retire to my corner,
the frigid corner of my home
Johnny Cash sings Highwayman from his grave
the charm lives on, the melody
melodious than ever and you want something
like that when you're in this kind of pain
an evening warmer than the ones that passed
my love is in the other hemisphere
drowning with sunset
my nights do not make me tremble anymore.
