Lyric

Screen door singing, evening air

Sinking in the old porch chair

The street is winding slowly down

Soft lights blinking through the town

The crickets tune their little strings

And evening does its gentle things

From the rising to the setting sun

There is something good for everyone

Out here on the porch tonight

Everything is turning right

Let the cool come off the day

Rock the heavy thoughts away

A neighbor waves and wanders past

The sweetest hours never last

But while they're here I'll hold them near

The bugs, the breeze, the sky so clear

Out here on the porch tonight

Everything is turning right

Let the cool come off the day

Rock the heavy thoughts away

The day was full, the night is kind

I leave the worry far behind

Out here on the porch tonight

Everything is turning right

Let the cool come off the day

Rock the heavy thoughts away

Screen door singing, evening air

Sinking in the old porch chair
