  • (ian hunter)

    I followed the night till the morning sunlight
    And I thought of the changing times
    And I followed the child with the evergreen smile
    And the blue broken tears start to cry

    Blue broken tears hide away the years
    Misty highway seems colder today

    And I saw a waterlow where the evergreen grows
    And the wise man knows why he crys
    And I heard a child call me away from this all
    And the blue broken tears start to rise

    Blue broken tears ain't nobody here
    Lost in the sun my only young one

    Blue broken tears our love disappears
    The evergreen dies drowned in my eyes
