If you have a heart for dreaming-
That somehow seems to care!
Then follow me down the pathway-
In the summer twilight there-
If you have a heart for dreaming-
Wherever the Fairies play-
Then follow me into the shadow
Of this old house today!
Of all the beautiful pictures
That hand on memories wall-
The one of the autumn twilight
Seems to be best of [...]

When I was young, there was a song-”when I leave The World Behind”-
I’ll leave the sunshine, for the summer-
I’ll leave the tree tops, for the breeze,
I’ll leave the moon above, for those in love-
When I leave the world, behind!
I’ll leave the moonlight, for the dreamers,
I’ll leave the great ships for the seas-
And for the “Old [...]

For millions of years, “Old Dakota”
Just laid here for Kicks ‘neath the sun;
Till the Land was worth “DOLLAR AN ACRE”-
And the FARMERS burned “COWSHIPS” for fun.
Some said “GIVE IT BACK TO THE INDIANS!”
Tho the INDIANS did not care-a-damn-
As the WHITE MAN had killed off the buffalo-
There was [...]

DARK WERE HER EYES-
Like her sad dark life-
And her HOME was a boat on the sand-
Just an overturned wreck of a lonely boat-
Where she lived, by the sounding sea!
She looked at me, and her deep dark eyes,
Where the shadows, when twilight is dim-
And I talked with her Grandma-
Beside the old boat,
That travels the Waves, no [...]

I met her beside the moonlit river-
I walked beside her through the summer days;
We did not say “goodbye” and leave forever-
For our love still is there, IN THE AUTUMN LEAVES!
Wherever Indian Summer days are golden-
Wherever SUNSET, through the twilight gleams;
Her heart will come to mine….across the shadow….
For LOVE is just a MELODY OF DREAMS.

We have always called you Annie-
Tho you wandered far away,
From the little hidden pathway
Where the joys of childhood stay,
Gone so quickly, down the pathway,
LEFT US….while the vision stays,
Of a Little Girl, name ANNIE-
That I knew in other days.
Gone so quickly, down the pathway-
Left me out here, all alone,
In the quiet of the eveing-
As I drive [...]

He put his arms around her-
It made the poor girl sick;
Was is true? what her Pa said?
That “he was a-damn-poor-stick?”
HE PUT HIS ARMS AROUND HER;
She was far away from HOME-
She told him “I NEARLY FROZE TO DEATH!”
In……my little bed… alone.
He put his arms around her-
But that was away last week;
An his new car was ready [...]

The BIG-BUCK lived a happy life-
And roamed the prairies round;
A hunting for the PRETTIEST DOE,
That he ever found!
Untill one day the Hunters came-
He held his head up high!
He saw again the daylight dim-
HE SAW THE MORNING SKY!
This BIG-BUCK knew me many a time-
He watched me on the “HILL”
Where I wrote all these songes of mine-
And [...]

There is a girl with Golden hair–
Free as the winds are free!
And….now in the days when I am old,
SHE RIDES ALONG WITH ME!
For us the days are always fair,
What ever be the weather……
And there is always a song out there,
As we climb the hills, together!
THERE IS NO WORRY IN THAT LAND….
WE FOUND IT….ONE BRIGHT DAY…..
In [...]

OH WHY SHOULD THE “SPIRIT” OF MORTAL BE PROUD?
Like the sigh of the West Wind-
The song of the rain…..
The GOLD of the Sunset, that fades into gray,
WE MUST LEAVE ALL THIS WORLD
LIKE A SHADOW,…..SOME DAY!
