HOME BEFORE DARK
From 1958 movie of same name
(Jimmy McHugh / Sammy Cahn)


Home before dark
I hurry home before dark
Before the sun goes to rest
I must fly to my nest like the lark
Home before dark
I must get home before dark
It’s almost ready to storm
And love waits with a warm remark

Home before dark
It’s good to be home before dark
So good to be held in the arms
The arms of the one I love
