Everybody's hand in hand,
Swingin' down the lane.
Everybody's feelin' grand
Swingin' down the lane.
That's the time I miss the bliss
That we might have known,
Nights like this
When I'm all alone.


When the moon is on the rise,
Baby, I'm so blue,
Watchin' lovers makin' eyes
Like we used to do.
when the moon is on the wane,
Still I'm waitin' all in vain,
Should be swingin' down the lane
With you.


When the moon is on the rise,
Baby, I'm so blue,
Watchin' lovers makin' eyes
Like we used to do.
when the moon is on the wane,
Still I'm waitin' all in vain,
Should be swingin' down the lane
With you.
