The sun's going down past the pines
|
Shadows grow long down the hill
|
Follow the path known by heart
|
Down to the wide open fields
|
|
Now that it's twilight
|
Twilight
|
Now that it's twilight, twilight
|
|
The morning mist burned off by noon
|
The dogs never moved from the shade
|
The mountains were bluer than blue
|
But the best of the day has been saved
|
|
You and me, you and me, you and me
|
You and me, you and me, you and me...
|
|
Now we'll be led by eventide's hand
|
'Til then we'll walk through the gloaming
|
Back on up the hill once again
|
Done with another day's roaming
|
|
Now that it's twilight, twilight
|
Magical twilight, twilight
|
|
