And the summer became the fall I was not ready for the winter It makes no difference at all 'Cause I wear boots all summer long My eye make up is dark and it's careless Some circles around my eyes Sometimes the real color of my skin Is my eyes without any shadow And when I call Will you walk gently Thru my shadow The ones who sing at night The ones who sing at night The ones you dream of The ones who walk away Capes pulled around them tight Cryin' for the night Cry for the nightbird tonite And so the winter is really here now And the blankets that I love I am surrounded sometimes By too much love And when I call Will you walk gently Thru my shadow The ones who sing at night The ones who sing at night The ones you dream of The ones who walk away Capes pulled around them tight Cryin' for the night Cry for the nightbird tonite And the darkened eyes Thru the net of the lace In the darkness It's hard to see her face Pulls back the net And you feel the touch Of her fingers And you see she turns the eyes And you see the eyes of a nightbird The ones you dream of Finally the nightbird Finally the nightbird Tonite In loving memory of Robin Snyder Anderson xxx
