Lyrics

Twilight Time

Twilight time to dream a while

In veils of deepening gloom

As fantasy strides over colorful skies

Before disappearing from view

In twilight time dream with me a while

A nightingale plays a dark mellow phrase

Of notes that are rich and so true

An aerial display by the firefly brigade

Dancing to tunes no one knew

In twilight time dream with me a while

In twilight time dream with me a while

Building castles in the air

Whistling to the wind

As nature bows down her head

See what tomorrow brings

Twilight time dream with me a while

Bats take to wing

Like puppets on string

Prancing through cool evening air

In a sightless glide

No reason to hide

Away from the sun's blinding stare

In twilight time dream with me a while

In twilight time dream with me a while...
