Moody Blues
Produced by Tony Clarke
Album: Days of Future Passed

Evening:

The Sun Set

When the sun goes down, and the clouds all frown
Night has begun for the sunset
See it with your eyes, Earth's re-energized
By the sun's rays everyday
Take a look out there, planets everywhere

When the sun goes down, and the clouds all frown
Night has begun for the sunset
Shadows on the ground, never make a sound
Fading away in the sunset
Night has now become day for everyone

I can see it all, from this great height
I can feel the sun, slipping out of sight
And the world still goes on, through the night

{Instrumental - orchestra}

Twilight Time

Twilight time, to dream awhile
Unveils a deepening blue
As fantasy strides, over colourfull skies
The form disappearing from view

In twilight time, dream with me awhile

A nightingale plays a dark mellow phrase
Of notes that are rich and so true
An aerial display by the firefly brigade
Dancing to tunes no one knew

In twilight time, dream with me awhile
In twilight time, dream with me awhile

Building castles in the air
Whistling to the wind
As nature bows down her head
See what tomorrow brings

In twilight time, dream with me awhile

Bats take to wing like puppets on string
Prancing through cool evening air
In a sightless glide, no reason to hide
From the ray of the sun's blinding stare

In twilight time, dream with me awhile
In twilight time, dream with me awhile

who else thinks of MLP? I think I've got Brony-Brain

Why would this make you think of MLP?

@Deiniol Bythynnwr twilight time is a name of an episode sorry I have a problem I dont use YouTube for music anymore I use vinyl now

1 listening in the twilight zone

I first heard this when I got ahold of this album on 8-track when I was 15. Definitely a classic. #8trackemojineeded

I don't care If somebody is bullying me at the comments

You have impeccable taste.

And plus I'm 9 years old

Or maybe not.....

HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO LISTEN THIS

Nicholas The Kid until you become enlightened

I didn't know hed died. sad

Rest in peace Ray Thomas. It's a shame so many people don't even know he died recently. This is one of my favorites by him.

Michael Breene it's pinder?

The second song, Twilight Time, is written and sung by Ray.

I saw them tonight at Cedar Park, TX.  How did I not hear this before tonight????  Hard to believe this is from 1967.  What a timeless song.  <3

Definitely the most "Psyched Out" with "Sunset." I can't place this song anyplace. Part of me feels it's in the land of Kismet, but also Bangkok.

Does anyone else picture a caravan of camels walking into the sunset?

daniel higgins na but I do when I listen to caravanseria by Santana you just reminded me of another great album thanks lol

daniel higgins nope, but during the interludes or orchestra parts I imagine a bunny hopping along a music trail in search of these songs and when he sees one he stops and listens to them.

Hump day. After Tuesday afternoon

Yes - always did!

When the sun goes down...
