The Band - Twilight (Song Sketch) Lyrics

Artist: The Band

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Robbie Robertson

Over by the wildwood
Hot summer night
We lay in the tall grass
Till the mornin' light

If I had my way I'd never
Get the urge to roam
But a young man serves his country
An old man guards the home

Don't send me no silly salutations
Or silly souvenirs from far away
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

I never gave it a second thought
It never crossed my mind
What's right and what's not
I'm not the judgin' kind

I can take the darkness, oh
Storms in the skies
But we all got certain trials
Burnin' up inside

Don't put me in a frame upon the mantel
'Fore memories grow dusty old and gray
You don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

And don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day
