Meet Me At Twilight 1906 Kern

If you love a little maid
who is rather prim and staid
you must always have a chaperone
Three is often company
when there's one who will not see
that is one who leaves the two alone,
the man up in the moon
is the real, real thing
so to your little girl
it's safe to sing:

Meet me at twilight when shadows fall
you know where I'll wait there
for the best little girl of all,
while stars are winking we two alone
with Mister ManintheMoon
for chaperone.

Meet me at twilight when shadows fall
you know where I'll wait there
for the best little girl of all,
while stars are winking we two alone
with Mister ManintheMoon
for chaperone.

You can tell your tale of love
while he's looking on above,
He will never tell
he is not mean.
Tho' he's getting rather old
not one single tale he's told
tho' a lot of funny things he's seen,
so when you wish to stroll
at the close of day
unto your little girl
it's safe to say:

Meet me at twilight when shadows fall
you know where I'll wait there
for the best little girl of all,
while stars are winking we two alone
with Mister ManintheMoon
for chaperone.

Meet me at twilight when shadows fall
you know where I'll wait there
for the best little girl of all,
while stars are winking we two alone
with Mister ManintheMoon
for chaperone.
