One More Time Around the Garden
One More Walk Around the Garden
(Carmelina, The Musical, 1979)
Music: Burton Lane
Words: Alan Jay Lerner
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 is beckoned 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
For one more time perhaps the dawn will wait
And one more prayer it's not too late
To gather one more rose
Before I say goodbye and close the garden gate
That old urge is saying
It's time to go straying
Where no one but April can find me
To try and recover
The heart of a lover
That I left lying somewhere behind me
Just one more walk around the garden
One more stroll along the shore
One more memory I can dream upon
Until I dream no more
For one more time perhaps the dawn will wait
And one more prayer 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

it gets me a bit sad.. maybe it's autumn, i guess..
Julie celebrates her 71st birthday today.
This is a poignant song indeed. But one takes me back to many of her accomplishments.
