All by myself at twilight
Watching the day depart
And with the fading twilight
Happiness fills my heart
When the moon comes over the mountain
Every beam brings a dream, Dear, of you
Once again we stroll neath the mountain
Through that rose-covered valley we knew
Each day is grey and dreary
But the night is bright and cheery
When the moon comes over the mountain
I'm alone with my mem'ries of you
(Instrumental Break)
Each day is grey and dreary
But the night is bright and cheery
When the moon comes over the mountain
I'm alone with my mem'ries of you
