This Close To The Dawn

(album: Manhattan Tower - 1956)

Hey, cabbie!
I'm calling you, cabbie!
I'm coming, be right there

He won't know their names
He won't know where they come from
Or where they go
He only knows they'll be in love
This close to the dawn

The ones that come to ride with him
All we seem to be helplessly in love
He'll take you 'round the park if you will
Though the night is still
He'll find a breeze to call your own
(Never leave me), (never leave me)
He'd be happy too
(Never leave me), (never leave me)

He'll take you around again while you're young
Take you to the stars that shine upon Manhattan Tower
(Never leave me), (never leave me)
He'll take you 'round again
(Never leave me), (never leave me)

He won't know their names
He won't know where they come from
Or where they go
He only knows they're so in love (hey cabbie!)
They're so in love (hey, hey cabbie!)
They're so in love (hey, hey cabbie!)
They're so in love
