When it's twilight on the trail
And I jump along the world is like a dream
And the wripple of the stream is my song

When it's twilight on the trail
And I rest once more my ceiling is the sky
And the grass on which I lie is my floor

Never ever have a nickel in my jeans
Never ever have a debt to pay
Still I understand what real contentment means
Guess I was born born that way
When it's twilight on the trail
And my voice is still please plant this heart of mine
Underneath that lonesome pine on the hill

Never ever have a nickel in my jeans...

. . .


Love thy neighbor walk up and say how be ye
Gee but I'm glad to see ye pal how's tricks what's new
Oh love thy neighbor offer to share her burden
Tell her to say the word'n you'll see her through

Now especially if there should be a beautiful girl next door
Now you say to that girl next door
Don't think I'm bold but my mama told me
To love thy neighbor and you will find your labor
A great deal easier life will be breezier if you love thy neighbor

Oh love thy neighbor walk up and say how be ye...
Now especially if there should be...

. . .


Without a word of warning my life has begun
Without a word of warning two hearts beat as one
From out of nowhere you came to me
A breeze passed by whispering your name to me
And without a word of warning strange as it seems
We kissed and with that kiss you invaded my dreams
I don't know how it ever happened out of the blue up above
You came along to answer my song of love
I don't know how it ever happened out of the blue up above
You came along to answer my song of love

. . .


Gee but I'd give the world to see that old gang of mine
I can't forget that old quartet that sang Sweet Adeline

Goodbye forever old fellows and gals
Goodbye forever old sweethearts and pals
God Bless them
Gee but I'd give the world to see that old old gang of mine

(Gee but I'd give the world to see that old gang of mine)
I can't forget that old quartet that sang Sweet Adeline

Goodbye forever old fellows and gals...

. . .


..I only drifted before you came along
The fort was lifted before you came along
I sent the blackbirds right back where they belong
The day you came along

I may have...

. . .


Why do I tell me myself these things that happen are all really true
When in my heart I know the magic is my love for you

You sigh the song begins you speak and I hear violins it's magic
The stars desert the skies and rush to nestle in your eyes it's magic
Without a golden wand or mystic charms
Fantastic things begin when I am in your arms

When we walk hand-in-hand the world becomes a wonderland it's magic
How else can I explain those rainbows when there ain't no rain it's magic
Why do I tell me myself these things that happen are all really true
When in my heart I know the magic is my love for you

. . .


I could show the world how to smile
I could be glad all of the while
I could change the gray skies to blue
If I had you

I could leave the old days behind
Leave all my pals, I'd never mind
I could start my life anew
If I had you

I could climb a snow-capped mountain
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross the burning desert
If I had you by my side

I could be a king, dear, uncrowned
Humble or poor, rich or renowned
There is nothin' I couldn't do
If I had you

I could climb a snow-capped mountain
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross the burnin' desert
If I had you by my side

I could be a king uncrowned
Humble or poor, rich or renowned
There is nothin' I couldn't do
If I had you

Baby, if I had you

. . .



Do I want to be with you
As the years come and go
Only forever, if you care to know
Would I grant all your wishes
And be proud of the task
Only forever if someone should ask
How long would it take me to be near if you beckoned
Off hand I would figure less than a second
Do you think I'd remember
How you look when you smile
Only forever oh, that's putting it mild
How long would it take me to be near if you beckoned
Off hand I would figure less than a second
Do you think I'd remember
How you look when you smile
Only forever and it's putting it mild


. . .


I cried for you now it's your turn to cry over me
Every road has a turning that's one thing you're learning

I cried for you oh what a fool I used to be
Now I found two eyes just a little bit bluer
And I found a heart just a little bit truer
I cried for you now it's your turn to cry over me

(I cried for you) what a fool I used to be
Now I found two eyes just a little bit bluer
And I found a heart oh just a little bit truer
I cried for you now it's your turn to cry over me

. . .



Once in a while give a thought to me once in a while
Once in a while will you try to give one little thought to me
Though someone else may be nearer your heart
Once in a while will you dream of the moment I shared with you
Moments before we two drifted apart
In love's smoldering ember one spark may remain
If love still can remember, the spark may burn again
I know that I'd be contented with yesterday's memories
Knowing you think of me once in a while
In love's smoldering ember one spark may remain
If love still can remember, the spark may burn again
I know that I'd be contented with yesterday's memories
Knowing you think of me once in a while
