It Happened At Dawn - Guy And Madeline On A Park Bench

It happened at dawn… Happened in this park A guy and girl had dally till the moon Was gone Then it sprang and up the moment came the sun’s to blame their love Happened at dawn They’d met the night before, the water’s shore, he played his horn across the park And so they strolled and spoke of years of old back when the folks would dance in the dark They found a place to sit where all the lamps were lit, Their fingers grazed hands almost touched, so long Then the sun a-rose and split the mist the guy and girl they stole a kiss it happened at the break of dawn. Right at dawn She slipped through his hand, she felt like sand, she wondered if her face was sweet enough He dove in, he kissed her with a grin, then wondered if his lips felt too rough Then the sun began its morning when the fountain won they thought it might be time to take a chance Start a new life With a new ro - mance "Yes all that fades away" that’s what folks like to say but these two kids they knew that lie was wrong When, they said their love would stay alive it grew un - til the day they died it happened at the break of dawn
