Twilight Time

 

Heavenly shades of night are falling

It’s twilight time

Out of the mist your voice is calling

‘Tis twilight time

When purple colored curtains mark the end of day

I’ll hear you, my dear, at twilight time

 

Deepening shadows gather splendor

As day is done

Fingers of light will soon surrender

The setting sun

I count the moments darling till you’re here with me

Together at last at twilight time

 

Here in the afterglow of day

We keep our rendezvous beneath the blue

And in the sweet and same old way

I fall in love again as I did then

 

Deep in the dark your kiss will thrill me

Like days of old

Lighting the spark of love that fills me

With dreams untold

Each day I pray for evening just to be with you

Together at last at twilight time

 

Here in the afterglow of day

We keep our rendezvous beneath the blue

And in the sweet and same old way

I fall in love again as I did then

 

Deep in the dark your kiss will thrill me

Like days of old

Lighting the spark of love that fills me

With dreams untold

Each day I pray for evening just to be with you

Together at last at twilight time

Together at last at twilight time
