The second submission for the Positive Songs Project, writing and recording a new song each week.
Moments of unity in separation.
lyrics
Thursdays at twilight I go down to the docks
Thursdays at twilight at 8 o'clock
The streets are empty, but I can hear you shout
Your hands together, your voices calling out
And I'm happy to be here
And I'm happy to hear you
And I'm happy to be here
And I'm happy to hear you
I cannot see you, I cannot hold you close
I cannot feel you, for you are too remote
The times are troubled, but there's joy in my heart
We are together, though we are apart
And I'm happy to be here
And I'm happy to hear you
And I'm happy to be here
And I'm happy to hear you
Thursdays at twilight I go down to the docks
Thursdays at twilight at 8 o'clock
I cannot see you, but I'll join you to shout
Our hands together, our voices calling out
That we're happy to be here
And we're happy to hear you
And we're happy to be here
And we're happy to hear you
