about

This is a demo of this song which I actually wrote for someone else. It's a track which I almost invariably perform A cappella when I play it live

lyrics

All the long day, she stood there by the shore
Staring at the sun, waiting for the moon
Bathing in the warmth, although her heart was cold
Never growing old
Hoping for the day that must come soon
All the long day, All the long day

All the long day, the sun was beating down
The seasons did not change, and spring would never rise
Autumn leaves were perched, but none of them could fall
Until they heard her call
Or till the day she finally closed her eyes
All the long day, All the long day

All the long day, her heart would slowly beat
Calm and still she stood, and nowhere did she turn
Nothing would disturb her, she waited on her own
Always there alone
But deep inside her heart, a fire burned
All the long day, All the long day

All the long day, a hundred years and more
Never giving in and never seeking rest
Winters could not touch her, eternity passed by
Her love would never die
Love that flourished deep within her breast
All the long day, All the long day

All the long day, she stood there by the shore
Staring at the sun, waiting for the moon
Bathing in the warmth, although her heart was cold
Never growing old
Hoping for the day that must come soon
All the long day, All the long day
