|
When you're all alone
|
All the children grown
|
And, like starlings, flown away
|
It gets lonely early, doesn't it?
|
Lonely early, doesn't it?
|
Ev'ry single endless day
|
|
When your twilight nears
|
And one face appears
|
Turning winter years to May
|
It gets lonely early, doesn't it?
|
Lonely early, doesn't it?
|
Still the old heart's young enough to say
|
|
"It was really more than lovely, wasn't it?
|
"Truly lovely, wasn't it?"
|
[strings]
|
Ev'ry single lovely day
