| I used to walk with you
|
| Along the avenue
|
| Our hearts were carefree and gay
|
| How could I know I’d lose you
|
| Somewhere along the way?
|
| So now I look for you
|
| Along the avenue
|
| And as I wander I pray
|
| That some day soon I’ll find you
|
| Somewhere along the way
|
| Here in my heart I’m alone and so lonely
|
| Here in my heart I just yearn for you only
|
| Here in my arms I long to hold you
|
| Hold you so near, ever close to my heart
|
| So, darling
|
| Say that you care, take these arms I give gladly
|
| Surely you know I need your love so badly
|
| Here is my heart, my life, and my all, dear
|
| Please be mine and stay here in my heart
|
| With someone like you
|
| A pal good and true
|
| I’d like to leave it all behind and go and find
|
| A place that’s known to God alone
|
| Just a spot we could call our own
|
| We’ll find perfect peace
|
| Where joys never cease
|
| Somewhere beneath the starry skies
|
| We’ll build a sweet little nest
|
| Somewhere out in the west
|
| And let the rest of the world go by |
