end of the day

• al stewart'ın 1978 çıkışlı time passages albümünün son sırada yer alan şarkısı.
  
  and in the evening when the day goes down
  she leaves the bright house lights
  stands and watches with her coat pulled around
  at torches light the western skies
  
  sometimes she thinks she knows him just too well
  other times not much at all
  they live their lives in some familiar spell
  and catch each other when they fall
  
  nothing lasts, well she knows, try to hang on
  when it's gone, you'll be burned
  fashions and friends come and go
  everyone travels that road in their turn
  
  she wants to run out where the day meets the night
  far beyond these midwest farms
  but she'll be with him till the day she finds
  a stranger lying in her arms
