{Player's notes: This song is one she sings in the silence of the night, when no one else listens. She began it first many years ago, after her first husband was killed, when she lived near the ocean.....}

In the fading twilight, all my courage floats away...

Like flotsam on the bay.

Thus ends another day.

And as night falls, I hide myself away.

Don't want anyone to see, the little timid mouse that's me,

all my armor stripped and gone, living only for the song......

And when I'm all alone, and no one sees or hears...

They come pouring out, my worries and my fears.

No shield to hide behind, and keep the pain inside.

Just raw emotion running free and clear....

And I lose all sense of time, wandering in this song of mine...

Finding strength within the song, with the music as my balm.

In the stillness of the night, I sing my fears away...

They run like cowards from the fray.

The music will hold sway.

And as dawn breaks, my courage is renewed.

Though I won't cease missing you, I can always get along...

Living only for the song....
