"Loneliness of Evening":
I wake in the loneliness of sunrise
when the deep purple heaven turns blue
And start to pray, as I pray each day, that I'll hear some word from you.
I lie in the loneliness of evening looking out on a silver flaked sea
And ask the moon, how soon, how soon, will my love appear to me?
Will my love appear to me?
Well, CU2, that's a good question--I'm going to have to go with "Boys and Girls Like You and Me."
Jolly good! You are correct! It was used as underscoring in the Ballroom sequence.
