Afterglow Lyrics

Vespers bell tolls days departure resounding it's plaintive knell the cowherd drives his cattle homewards as sunlight bids a fading farewell. (Chorus:) Warm Afterglow, how discreetly you flow casting twilight's halo, on the dimming day. Calm Afterglow, bathe each hill and hedgerow in a scarlet shadow, slipping slowly grey. Shirehorse ploughs one final furrow gaping nostrils snorting steam, the yearling bows her head in slumber while Sandman spurs a world to dream. (Chorus) Advent of night, soothing sight, seamans delight. Bustling woodland slows to stillness, quiet save for the blackbirds cry a crimson aura braids the skyline urging languid day to die. (Chorus)
