The main focus on my channel is on Roxy Music/Bryan Ferry and The Beatles, but I also cover other songs that take my fancy.
From his 2010 album Olympia, another Ferry classic.
According to BF himself it's one of the best songs on the album.
I like the soothing and tender mood and nature of the song.
My version is shorter than the original (which is 6:51), because to me the length seemed to be just appropriate for only guitar and vocals.
Why must you shed such tender tears
In the evening of your years
No other love could stem the tide
Of the loneliness I hide
Open your heart and let me live
All the promises I could give
The sun and moon and all the stars
They bow down to you whenever you pass
In a world of fading sadness
An emerald ring, a photograph
That look in your eyes the brush of your cheek
These are the moments in life that I seek
No reason or rhyme, no presence of mind
Just a dance to the music of time
Why must you shed such tender tears
In the evening of your years
No other love could stem the tide
Of the loneliness I hide
Inside out, upside down
Obscured by clouds, or underground
The sun and moon and all the stars
They bow down to you whenever you pass
Wherever you are, whenever you speak
These are the moments in my life that I seek
No reason or rhyme, by chance or design
Just a dance to the music of time
