Twilight

Over by the wild wood it was a hot summer night We lay in the tall gra*s, 'til the mornin' light come shining If I had my way I'd never get the urge to roam Sometimes to serve my country, sometimes I stay at home Just don't put me in a frame upon the mantel Where memories grow dusty old and gray Don't leave me alone in the twilight Twilight is the loneliest time of day And I never gave it a second thought, I never crossed my mind To what's right and what's not, I'm not the judgin' kind But I would steal your darkness and storms from the skies We've all got certain trials burnin' up inside Just don't send me no distant salutations Or silly souvenirs from far away Don't leave me alone in the twilight Twilight is the loneliest time a day And don't put me in the frame upon the mantel Where memories grow dusty old and gray Don't leave me alone in the twilight Twilight is the loneliest time a day
