Twilight (Song Sketch) Lyrics

Over by the wildwood
Hot summer night
We lay in the tall grass
til the mornin' light
If I had my way I'd never
get the urge to roam
But a young man serves his country
and an old man guards the home

Don't send me no distant salutations
or silly souvenirs from far away
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

I never gave a second thought
Never crossed my mind
What's right, what's not
I ain't the judgin' kind
I can take the darkest oh
Storms in the skies
But we all got certain trials
burnin' up inside
Don't put me in a frame upon the mantle
For memories turn dusty, old, and gray
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
