Lyrics
What am I gonna do when the twilight comes and the whippoorwill calls your name?
What am I gonna do when I close my eyes and your standing here again?
How can I just say a prayer and trust the empty sky to care for you?
What am I gonna say when a long-lost friend asks me how you’ve been?
What am I gonna hear when a heartless night sends your ghost on the winter wind?
How can I just say goodbye and go on without you?
What am I gonna do?
Whose laughing eyes will shine for me, whose warm voice will melt me?
Whose touch will make me tremble in the night?
How can there be another love when I will still be dreaming of
The one that I can never have again?
How can I just say a prayer and trust the empty sky to care for you?
What am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do when the twilight comes and the whippoorwill calls your name?
What am I gonna do when the twilight comes and the whippoorwill calls your name?
What am I gonna do when I close my eyes and your standing here again?
How can I just say a prayer and trust the empty sky to care for you?
What am I gonna say when a long-lost friend asks me how you’ve been?
What am I gonna hear when a heartless night sends your ghost on the winter wind?
How can I just say goodbye and go on without you?
What am I gonna do?
Whose laughing eyes will shine for me, whose warm voice will melt me?
Whose touch will make me tremble in the night?
How can there be another love when I will still be dreaming of
The one that I can never have again?
How can I just say a prayer and trust the empty sky to care for you?
What am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do when the twilight comes and the whippoorwill calls your name?
