lyrics

Evening Legal

You hear the ringing of the bells across the river  
The sun is sinking low, the day is passed and gone  
You walk along the narrow streets of this old city
 No place for you to rest, no distance left to run

Oh it's okay, It's only the evening legal  
Oh it's okay, It's only the evening standard  

You see the plane up in the sky heading for nowhere  
You lit another cigarette, is it aloud?  
You think you recognise the face, you must be joking
 The past is in the swamp, the future is in cloud

Oh it's okay, It's only the evening legal  
Oh it's okay, It's only the evening warning
 Oh it's okay, It's only the evening gamble
 Oh it's okay, It's only the evening legal

Try not to cry  
When Life's gonna pass you by
 Give one more try  
Don't give up without fight no, no
 Start once again
 And you will get the helping hands
 And the ground, ground to stand  
You will win in the end, I know

Oh it's okay, It's only the evening legal  
Oh it's okay, It's only the evening glory  
Oh it's okay, It's only the evening ramble  
Oh it's okay, It's only the evening legal
