twilight (early alternate version)
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 a day Over by the wildwood Where young lovers go Sparks flashing in the night True colors show 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 put me in a frame upon the mantel 'Fore memories turn dusty old and grey Don't leave me alone in the twilight 'Cause twilight is the loneliest time a day I can face the darkness or The storms in the sky But we all got certain trials burnin' up inside You only hurt yourself You don't know what you're doing Trying to make it all alone Who you thinking you're fooling? Don't hand me nothing I can't hold Or nothing that I can't give away Don't leave me alone in the twilight 'Cause twilight is the loneliest time a day
