Lyrics

Verse 1
Just another evening
Festive and Sublime
Moonlight shines on this place
I walk up and down the sidewalks
But something's wrong
Everywhere I go I see your face

Chorus
It's another lonely night
Tomorrow's just another lonely day
It's just my broken heart
Never be another girl like you

Verse 2
She sits under the shadow
Of a willow tree
Her jade green eyes looking at me
I smile as I take my shades off
And I wink an eye
And then some guy takes her away

Chorus 2
Well, I remember when we were together
And all the things we had
How we laughed, how we cried
Never be another girl like you

Bridge
And when I see
The fool i am
And how love's just a game
I resolve to start anew
Still I call your name
I call your name

Verse 1: Repeat
Just another evening
Festive and Sublime
Moonlight shines on this place
I walk up and down the sidewalks
But something's wrong
Everywhere I go I see your face

Chorus 1: Repeat
It's another lonely night
Tomorrow's just another lonely day
It's just my broken heart
There will never be another
Never be another girl like you

Your Liner Notes made me chuckle and drew me in. The fact that your Chorus doesn't rhyme makes it more impactful somehow.

Again the perfect song for this late evening here! I was singing along with you while listening to this so beautiful song!
Great guitar playing, lyrics, vocals!
I love it!

I really love your vocals and guitar on this. The earnestness is 100 and so effective. Very nice.

Love the guitar! This is really solid work - sweet melody, lovely heartbroken lyrics, and great country-folk vibe. Really like the change-up chord progression in the bridge. Enjoyed the listen!

Sweet and sad. I like how it moves from evening to night as we realize how sad things are (and then we move to tomorrow). Also the "it's just" is a nice contrast in phrasing to how sad and permanent ("there'll never be another girl like you"

Oh this is so beautifully sad. Your gorgeous guitar playing and lovely emotive vocals are such a pleasure to listen to. You have really captured fresh heartbreak like with this line "Everywhere I go I see your face ". You make us really feel for the narrator and his broken heart. Beautiful song.
