The day is done; the dinner too
The dishes washed and dried
Let's go for a walk tonight
It's so lovely outside
I'll go grab your sweater
Hey, we'll walk around the park
Catch the last rays of sunshine
The first shadows of dark.
CHORUS
There's a cool breeze coming off the delta
The summer's heat slowly does subside
The trees grab the breeze and start to dancing
So lovely as they sway side to side
And the little stars gradually awaken
They're blinking dimly now in the evening sky
And the quarter moon sails low above the mountain
Hey, it's Clear Across the Valley Tonight.
Clear Across the Valley like that night long ago
When I drove Clear Across the Valley
To say, "I love you so"
And though many years have parted now since you became my bride
Hey it's Clear Across the Valley Tonight.
2nd Verse.
Take my hand, take my arm, you know you have my heart
Walking side by side now as we have done from the start.
Step by step,Day by day, year after year
Straight into this evening;so beautiful so clear.
CHORUS
There's a cool breeze coming off the delta
The summer's heat slowly does subside
The trees grab the breeze and start to dancing
So lovely as they sway side to side
And the little stars now they have awakened
They're shining brightly now in that nighttime sky
And the quarter moon sails high above the mountain
Hey, it's Clear Across the Valley Tonight.
Clear Across the Valley like that night long ago
When I drove Clear Across the Valley
I had to hold you close
And though many years have parted now since you became my bride
Hey it's Clear Across the Valley
Clear Across the Valley
Clear Across the Valley tonight.
