Late In The Evening Lyrics


And the first thing I remember, I was lying in my bed
Well I couldn't've been no more than one or two
And I remember there was a radio, coming from the room next door
My mother laughed the way some ladies do
Well it's late in the evening
And all the music is seeping through
The next thing I remember, I am walking down a street
I'm feeling alright I'm with my boys and with my troops, yeah
And down along the avenue some guys are shootin' pool
And I heard the sound of a Capella groups, yeah
It's late in the evening
And all the girls out on the stoops, yeah
Well I learned to play some lead guitar, I was underage in this funky bar
And I stepped outside to smoke myself a J
When I come back to the room, everybody just seemed to move
And I turned my amp up loud, I began to play
It's late in the evening now

And I blew that room away
First thing I remember when you came into my life
Said, "I wanna get that girl, no matter what I do"
Well I guess I've been in love before, once or twice have been
On the floor but I've never loved no-one the way that I love you, I love you
It's late in the evening
And all the music is seeping through
First thing I remember, I was lying in my bed
Well I couldn't've been no more than one or two
And I remember there was a radio, it was, was coming from the room
Next door and my mother laughed the way some ladies do, you know
Well it's late in the evening
And all the music is seeping through

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Paul Frederic Simon (born October 13, 1941 in Newark, New Jersey) is an American singer, songwriter and guitarist. He first gained world-wide recognition as the writing talent behind the popular American folk-rock duo Simon & Garfunkel formed with fellow musician Art Garfunkel. When Simon & Garfunkel split in 1970, Simon quickly began his solo career with the release of the self-titled album, Paul Simon. This was followed by There Goes Rhymin' Simon and Still Crazy After All These Years, both of which featured chart-topping hits such as Loves Me Like A Rock and Kodachrome. In 1986 Simon released the immensely popular Graceland, which featured the groundbreaking use of African rhythms and performers Ladysmith Black Mambazo. In 1990, he followed up Graceland with the successor album The Rhythm of the Saints which featured Brazilian and Cajun musical themes. These albums helped to popularize world music as a genre.

He co-wrote the unsuccessful, but critically-acclaimed musical The Capeman with Nobel-winning poet Derek Walcott in 1997. His most recent album, Surprise, was produced by Brian Eno.

Paul Simon still tours occasionally, both as a solo artist and with his old musical partner Art Garfunkel. He is married to Edie Brickell.

In 1994 Paul Simon held 14 sold out concerts in Nantes (France) with International professional fusion players: Nino Manore (Italy), Francis Mc Gowan (UK), Gissele Masarde (France), Nikša Sviličić (Croatia), and others.
