[Intro;Violin;Acoustic guitar;Bagpipes;Irish whistle] [Verse 1] Sun settling over the horizon The day changing to dusk Evening gaining on the day Not a noise from the world can be heard [Verse 2] Birds of the day retiring Going to their nests Not far off the trail A hen settling on to her clutch for the night [Verse 3] The nearby stream adding to the calm The new leaves seen during the day looking greener As they fill out the trees Look as though they are retreating Curling up for the night [Bridge] The sky is still gray after a day of rain An orange glow wrapping around the hills Leaving a pleasant scent in the air The evening orchestra starts [Interlude;Violin;Acoustic guitar;Bagpipes;Mandolin;Accordion] [Verse 4] Sun settling over the horizon The day changing to dusk Birds of the day retiring Going to their nests [Verse 5] Birds of dusk start to sing Singing to the trees Singing to their friends Singing everyone to sleep [Interlude;Violin;Acoustic guitar;Bagpipes;Mandolin;Accordion] [Chorus] Birds of dusk start to sing Singing to the trees Singing to their friends Singing everyone to sleep [Outro] A beautiful way to close the day…. A beautiful way to close the day…. A blessed way to call it a day Calling it a day [Fade to END] [END]
