Twilight Lyrics

Over by the Wild Wood on a hot Summer night
We lay in the tall grass 'til the morning light
If I had my way I'd never get the urge to roam
Sometimes I serve my country, sometimes I stay at home
CHORUS 1:
Just don't put me in a frame upon the mantle
C ~ Am7 Am
Memories grow dusty, old and grey
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
The twilight is the loneliest time of day
INTERLUDE: C G Am Em C G D G C G
Never gave it a second thought, it never crossed my mind
What is right and what is not, I'm not the judging kind
But I would steal your darkness and the star holes from your skies
We've all got certain trials burning up inside
CHORUS 2:
Just don't send me no distant salutations
C ~ Am7 Am
Or silly souvenirs from far away
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
The twilight is the loneliest time of day
INSTRUMENTAL: C G Am Em C G D G C G Am Em C G D
CHORUS 1:
Just don't put me in a frame upon the mantle
C ~ Am7 Am
Memories grow dusty, old and grey
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
The twilight is the loneliest time of day
OUTRO: G C G C ~ Am7 Am D G
