Twilight Songtext
von Rick Danko

Over by the wildwood, hot summer night
We lay in the tall grass ′til the morning light comes shining
If I had my way, I'd never get the urge to roam
But a young man serves his country, and an old man stays at home

Don′t put me in a frame upon the mantle
For memories grow dusty, old and gray
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
Twilight is the loneliest time of day


Never give a second thought, never cross my mind
To what's right and who′s not, I′m not the judging kind
I could take your darkness, oh, storms from your sky
But we've all got certain trials burning up inside

Don′t send me no distant salutations
Or silly souvenirs from far away
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
Twilight is the loneliest time of day

No, don′t leave me alone in the twilight
Twilight is the loneliest time of day
