Off   Northern Lights, Southern Cross

          

Twilight (Early alternative version) 
                           
Don't send me no distant salutations
                          
or silly souvenirs from far away

Don't leave me alone in the twilight
                               
Twilight is the loneliest time a day

              
Over by the wildwood

Where young lovers go 

Sparks flashin 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 guard the home 

(Same pattern for rest of song)

Don't put me in a frame upon the mantel
'Fore memories turn dusty old and grey
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
Twilight is the loneliest time a day

I can Face the darkness 
Oh the storm in the sky 
But we all got certain trials burnin up inside
You’ll only hurt yourself 
You don’t know what your doin
Tryin to make it all alone 
Who do you think youre foolin

         
Mmm mmm mmm mmm

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
Twilight is the loneliest time a day
