Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
When the long day is thru’ and I come to you
You cheer me with a smile.
And the cares of the day all vanish away
And life again seems worthwhile.
Chorus
The sun is in the west across the bay,
Another perfect day has passed away.
The birds have gone to rest while moonbeams play,
Another perfect day has passed away.
I’ll sing my song of love when the day is thru’,
Each little star above is a kiss for you.
As down the years we stray each night I’ll say
Another perfect day has passed away.
Sung by Laurence Rubenstein:
