Jerry Lee Lewis - Twilight Lyrics

Over by the wild wood
Hot in summer night
We lay in the tall grass
'Til the early 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 sweet salutation
Or city silver near and far away
Don't leave me all alone here in the twilight
You know twilight is the loneliest time of day

Well, I never gave it a second thought
It never crossed my mind
What's right, what's not
I ain't the judgin' kind

I can take the darkness
Oh, storms flying in the skies
But we all got certain trials
Keep 'em burnin' up inside

Don't put me in a frame upon the mantel
For memories roll dusty, old and gray
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

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

Yes, it is
