lyrics

PLAYING CHESS GAMES IN THE PARK

The evening is so cool and the wind it can be cruel
Above us is the moon it sings a mournful tune
Gathered in the dusk, scented like the musk
Rolling in the dark, painting pictures in the park
We sat upon a stone, you and I alone
we come to pass the time, no reason and no rhyme
A thousand miles apart yet closer to the heart
We’re whispering in the dark , playing chess games in the park

And children voices call, softly how they fall
A thousand starry eyes of the night begin to rise
And far across the bay the dogs have howled their day
Tides have wracked the shore for to carry me back once more

And above us cities fly , so sky scraping high
They’ve got etc kiss the sky and its time to say goodbye
And chances wax and wane and friends remain the same
We’re whispering in the dark , Playing chess games in the park
