Twilight

[Verse 1]
Over by the wildwood
It was a hot summer night
We lay in the tall grass
'Til the mornin' light come shining
If I had my way I'd never
Get the urge to roam
Sometimes I serve my country
Sometimes I stay at home

[Chorus]
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
The twilight is the loneliest time of day

[Verse 2]
And I never gave a second thought
It never crossed my mind
To what is right or what is not
I'm not the judgin' kind
But I would steal your darkness
And the storms from your skies
We've all got certain trials
Burning up inside

[Chorus]
Just don't send me no distant salutations
Or silly souvenirs from far away
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
The twilight is the loneliest time of day
And don't put me in the frame upon the mantel
Where memories grow dusty old and grey
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
The twilight is the loneliest time of day

[Outro]
Thank you.
