lyrics
She sits here wondering where her life has gone,
Stumbling through another year, what has she become?
No one round there’s hardly a sound from outside her front door.
Letters sent but no reply, friendships seem at war.
Evelyn why don’t you whisper, prayers within, tell her you miss her. Stop the fight, cover it all with star light, star light.
Evelyn, why don’t you whisper, songs within, tell her you miss her. Stop the fight, cover it all with star light, star light.
Every day she wakes up and makes her favourite brew.
Listens to National Radio and wonders what to do.
Crosswords done, the washings put out, maybe take a stroll.
Sunhat on, shawl around, looking for a friendly soul.
Evelyn why don’t you whisper, prayers within, tell her you miss her. Stop the fight, cover it all with star light , star light.
Evelyn, why don’t you whisper, songs within, tell her you miss her. Stop the fight, cover it all with star light, star light.
Sing while you play the piano, waltz like you used to.
Write while you remember stories back from your glory days.
Stumbling through another year, what has she become?
No one round there’s hardly a sound from outside her front door.
Letters sent but no reply, friendships seem at war.
Evelyn why don’t you whisper, prayers within, tell her you miss her. Stop the fight, cover it all with star light, star light.
Evelyn, why don’t you whisper, songs within, tell her you miss her. Stop the fight, cover it all with star light, star light.
Every day she wakes up and makes her favourite brew.
Listens to National Radio and wonders what to do.
Crosswords done, the washings put out, maybe take a stroll.
Sunhat on, shawl around, looking for a friendly soul.
Evelyn why don’t you whisper, prayers within, tell her you miss her. Stop the fight, cover it all with star light , star light.
Evelyn, why don’t you whisper, songs within, tell her you miss her. Stop the fight, cover it all with star light, star light.
Sing while you play the piano, waltz like you used to.
Write while you remember stories back from your glory days.
