When the southern moon hangs

And the mocking birds trying to do

Toward telling my love, you know.
On the old front porch with your
hand in mine
On this Indian summer night.
The kiss of your lips to my souls
like wine
TIL it's stepped in a mad delight
Roses and twilight and you, dear
heart, II
And the moonlight on your hair;
No painter of old with all his art
Could have painted scene more

So I'll say goodbye to the quickened
kiss.
Au revoir to the soft twilight
Just one little taste of heavens bliss
Then the roses and you, good
