The sheet music:
Accompaniment:
Lyrics
- Shadows falling, let me forget the world
Sing on, oh mountain brook
‘Neath crimson skies unfurled
The tinkling of distant bells
Tell me the day is done
I stand at the door of dreams
I know that you will come
Refrain
Dreaming of you in the twilight
And I know that you dream of me too
I reach out to touch you
For you seem so near
You smile as you used to do
A smile that’s so gentle and tender
Like the soul of a friend that is true
Nor, time can efface
There’s always a place
At memories gate for you
- Star light, star night
Somewhere I hear your voice
Just words of sympathy
That make my heart rejoice
But why do I weep tonight?
’Tis that I miss you so
The moonlight is golden with dreams
Where hopes and memories glow
