One More Walk Around the Garden

That old April yearning

Once more is returning

And I have a longing to wander

The leaves may be falling

But April is calling

And the primroses beckon me yonder

For one more walk around the garden

One more stroll along the shore

One more memory I can dream upon

Until I dream no more

One more time perhaps the dawn will wait

And one more time it's not too late

To gather one more rose before I say goodbye

And close the garden gate

That old age is saying

It's time to go straying

When no one but April can find me

To try and recover

The heart of a lover

That I left lying somewhere behind me

One more walk around the garden

One more stroll along the shore

One more memory I can dream upon

Until I dream no more

One more time perhaps the dawn will wait

And one more time it's not too late

To gather one more rose before I say goodbye

And close the garden gate

One more rose before I close the garden gate
