Carmelina - One More Walk Around the Garden Lyrics

1979 Broadway
Carmelina the Musical - One More Walk Around the Garden Lyrics

The song was written by Burton Lane and Alan Jay Lerner.

BRADDOCK, KARZINSKI & SMITH:
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 mem’ry 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.

The 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 mem’ry 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.
