The Neighbour - The Clientele

Evening’s hymn

Conjures the park

And, now out of the dark

In a dream I followed you home

The crowds thinned out until we were alone

Waiting on some street I didn’t know

When you heard a violin in the night

One room away

Did you wonder that wherever you were

One room away

He plays with only love

He plays with only love

So let your hands fall low, and turn your face to him

The festival is over, and the cypresses are bare

In the corridor, the face of God is smiling

When you heard a violin in the night

One room away

Did you wonder that wherever you were

One room away

How will you ever know

The dancer from the dance?

The dancer from the dance?

The curtain from the wind?

The festival is over

And the sea is in your eyes

On the promenade

The old Gods are returning

When you heard a violin in the night

One room away

Did you wonder that wherever you were

One room away

He plays with only love, he plays with only love

So let your hands fall low, and turn your face to him

The festival is over, and the cypresses are bare

In the corridor, the face of God is smiling

Evening’s hymn

Conjures the park

And now, out of the dark

In a dream I followed you home

The crowds thinned out until we were alone

Waiting on some street I didn’t know
