Alpenglow
written by Gary Marks © 1976 Arewea Co. ASCAP

Running away like the sun setting cold

with only a remembrance of alpenglow

and its hundreds of miles between.

*

There are times I’m the clouds

and times I’m the sun

but it always just depends upon the afterglow

and that's when I look to you

*

Colors of a windy evening

fade into the mist of distant blues.

*

All of the colors I've felt from you

seem a mere reflection of the ones that don't shine through.

And they've finally darkened you.

*

Colors of a windy evening

fade into the mist of distant blues.

*

Running away like the stars growing old,

with only a remembrance of alpenglow.

And its hundreds of miles between.

This is one of my favorites of Gary's older songs. He wrote it when he was in his 20's.
