about

San Francisco is the edge of the Pacific, one edge, that is. Somewhere in the strange back streets is a dated homage to an unnamed era of what some might call "Tiki Culture"- strong drinks, concrete all around, windswept with faint hints of tropical breezes, full of memories, both real and imagined. A perfect place to fall in love, at least in metaphor. With, of course, an unelaborated reference to a favorite Brian Eno and Robert Fripp record.

lyrics

..silent silver sunsets over San Francisco Bay
orange glow that hits the fog and slowly fades away
night comes in, sky slowly dims, we stroll together hand in hand
underneath the planets peeking through the clouds..

Yesterday we painted a tropic island scene;
all tonight the darkness is heavy with our dreams.
The city lights come beckoning from near and far.
Darling, you're my Evening Star.

Once I floated lonely looking for the perfect wave,
then you came along, my dear, and ferried me away
to a hilly city and a Tiki bar.
Darling, you're my Evening Star.

..silent silver sunsets over San Francisco Bay
orange glow that hits the fog and slowly fades away..
The city lights come beckoning from near and far-
Darling, you're my Evening Star.
