MiscellaneousTwilight (Early Alternate Version) lyrics by The Band
Don't send me no distant salutations
Or silly souvenirs from far away
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time a day
Over by the wildwood where young lovers go
Sparks flashing in the night, true colors show
If I had my way I'd never get the urge to roam
But a young man serves his country and an old man guards the home
Don't put me in a frame upon the mantel
Before memories turn dusty old and gray
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time a day
I could take the darkness, oh storms in the skies
But we all got certain trials burnin' up inside
You only hurt yourself you don't know what you're doing
Tryin' to make it all alone who you think you're fooling
Don't hand me nothing I can't hold
Or nothing that I can't give away
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day
