TUNE THAT NEVER GROWS OLD, THE
(Lee Morse)


Lee Morse - 1931





A melody sung in twilight
Should be for lovers alone
Hearts old and weary or hearts young and light
This magic time is their own, so

Sing me the tune that never grows old
Tell me the tale all lovers have told
Sing me the song of days that are past
Tell me the story that always will last

Just say, "I love you 
And I'll stop my roaming"
Then, like the old folks
We'll walk through the gloaming

Tell me of love that never grows cold
Sing me the tune that never grows old

(Violin Solo)

Sing me the tune that never grows old
Tell me the tale all lovers have told
Sing me the song of days that are past
Tell me the story that always will last

Just say, "I love you 
And I'll stop my roaming"
Then, like the old folks
We'll walk through the gloaming

Tell me of love that never grows cold
Sing me the tune that never grows old
