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 a young man serves his country and an old man guards the home never gave a second thought never crossed my mind what s right and what s not i m not the judgin kind i could take the darkness oh storms in the skies but we all got certain trials burnin up inside 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 don t put me in a frame upon the mantel fore memories turn dusty old and grey don t leave me alone in the twilight twilight is the loneliest time a day
