Lyrics

The sun in the evening is a bright pink balloon
setting over that rise
giving color a meaning
orange and amber in a lavender sky
African daisies out blooming in the backyard
dandelion smile
sitting in the shade of the blue spruce
come to visit awhile

i don't want no drink of water
let me drink from your loving cup
i don't want no alibi
let me drink from your loving cup
what i want now you can give me
let me drink from your loving cup
only you can fill it up
let me drink from your loving cup
let me drink from your loving cup

Old red robin goes pokin' through the backyard
old black cricket out singin' to the stars
full moon rising bringing on the evening
lighting up the town
bring your lovin' cup to me
early in the evening when the sun is down
