Goodnight Darling

That evening shadow

Across your pillow

Will stay until your end

But if you hold it

 I know you’ll lose it

Your one and only friend


Goodnight darling

 I hope to see you

Before the stars are gone

But if I leave you

 I won’t deceive you

I’ll be the first to run


Morning lovers, evening friends

Who knows when love begins

Radio playing

Seems to be saying

We’ll never meet again


Goodnight darling

That misty moon glow

Is playing in your hair

Your lips are moving

So dark and glooming

I’d like to die in there


Morning lovers, evening friends

Who knows when love begins

That band is playing

I think they're playing

We’ll never meet again


Goodnight darling

The sound of music

Will filter through your brain

Your love is crazy

I think that maybe

Baby we’re both insane

 

Goodnight darling

Goodnight baby

Goodnight my lovely
