Twilight Falling

Cat. #0112 (MFH #672) - As sung by Mrs. Ed Newton, Gainesville, Missouri on June 10, 1958

VERSE 1
Twilight stealing over th sea
Shadows are falling light on the lea
Borned on the night wind voices of yours
Come from that far off shore

CHORUS:
Far away, beyond th starlit sky
Where thy lovelight never, never dies
Gleam of a mansions filled with delight
Sweet happy homes so bright

VERSE 2
Voices of loved ones, songs of th past
Still linger round me while life shall last
Lonely I wander, sadly I roam
Seeking a far off home

VERSE 3
Come in th twilight, come, come to me
Bringing some message over the sea
Borned on the pathways while here I roam
Looking th far off home
