Sweet Evening Breeze |
| I was loud and a little sad |
| She was visiting from Atlanta, Georgia |
| She had come to spend the summer with her dad |
| I thought she was very pretty |
| We would kiss and hold hands |
| Every night by the football field |
| Her body was tan |
| From the afternoons by the public swimming pool |
| Sweet evening breeze |
| Blows around my thoughts and memories |
| As I lie here today |
| And drink my tea |
| I can still see |
| Sweet evening breeze |
| I saw her in a coffee shop |
| In a big hotel down in Austin, Texas |
| She had cut her long hair off |
| And replaced it with |
| Blue eyes of sadness |
| Still acted like we were kids |
| And she told me that she had to marry |
| And she asked me if I did |
| Still remember |
| Sweet evening breeze |
| Blows around my thoughts and memories |
| As I lie here today |
| And drink my tea |
| I can still see |
| Sweet evening breeze |
| How redundant the future can be |
| These days of old are very, very |
| Ridiculous for me to see |
| When I think about the real gone stories |
| And how time holds the winning hand |
| I can tell by the lines on our faces |
| And the young can’t understand |
| That they look at me |
| When they look at themselves |
| Oh, sweet evening breeze |
| Blows around my thoughts and memories |
| As I lie here today |
| And drink my tea |
| I can still see |
| Sweet evening breeze |
