she was waiting in the garden in the evening
she was waiting with the moonlight in her eyes
she was singing of the ripples
that were dancing through the water
and the little boy who cast them with a stone

they said her eyes were like satin..rain
and they said she'd never be the same
in the evening

she was swimming thru the nile in the evening
with the bad moon slowing rising in the haze
and the lightning and thunder
and the current pulled her under
and this is what is written on her grave

it says her eyes were like satin...rain
and it says we'll never be the same
it says her eyes were like satin...rain
and it says we'll never be the same

in the evening when the moon hangs low
when the lights that glow and starry skies
I see this all inside her eyes in the evening

they said her eyes were like satin..rain
and they said she'd never be the same
in the evening

in the evening...
