In This Twilight

(Stephen Duffy)

 

 

Piano plays, into the night

The sun’s gone down now, darking closing hood

It's goodbye friend, yes I know

You would have loved me, if only you could

 

I've so much time now, I walk alone

I visit streets I once called home

And since I left, I won't go back

To exchange broken hearted feelings

For all the love I lack

 

In this twilight no one cares

The sun’s gone down on sad affairs

In this twilight no one cares

In this twilight no one cares

The sun’s gone down on sad affairs

In this twilight no one cares

She'll write again soon, she swears

 

So alone, so it goes

Woe-bound express, nothing really shows

Piano plays, but if I could choose

To keep apart a heart unbroken

Even if I lose

 

I'd hit the sack but the sack hits back

I bite the hand but the hand will slap

I'll write you a letter, the phone won't do

I never seem to come across how I've wanted to

 

In this twilight no one cares

The sun’s gone down on sad affairs

In this twilight no one cares

 

In this twilight no one cares

The sun’s gone down on sad affairs

In this twilight no one cares

She'll write again soon, she swears

Oh, she swears

 

In this twilight no one cares

The sun’s gone down on sad affairs

In this twilight no one cares

In this twilight no one cares

The sun’s gone down on sad affairs

In this twilight no one cares

She'll write again soon, she swears

You know I care
