Walk Awhile with Me (original)

Lyrics:

Will you walk awhile, my darling,
Walk awhile with me -
Come what may through what life brings?
Of all the bright young ladies,
Pretty as you please,
There's not a one I'd love but thee.

When the world is greening and April breezes blow
And the flowers of the valley bud and grow,
When rosy daybreak beckons at our window
Put your hand in mine, and away we'll go...

Will you walk awhile, my darling,
Walk awhile with me,
While all the world is blossoming?
Oh, not a bloom of springtime,
Pretty as you please,
Could blossom half so fair as thee...

When the monarch flutters above the summer rose
And the world with life's enchantment glows
When the buoyant light of noontime shines
Through our window
Put your hand in mine, and away we'll go...

Will you walk awhile, my darling,
Walk awhile with me,
While nature hums in joie du vivre?
Oh, all the world's a garden - Eden, if you please -
With me, your Adam; you, my Eve...

When the leaves of autumn drift wistfully and slow
And the moon over golden grain swings low
When the cool of twilight beckons at out window
Put your hand in mine, and away we'll go...

Will you walk awhile, my darling,
Walk awhile with me,
As farmers all the harvest reap?
Oh, naught of autumn's bounty, blessed as it be,
Could match the years I've shared with thee...

When the winds of winter come, with their ice and snow
And the flowers of the valley all lie low,
When the sleeping world beckons at our window
Put your hand in mine, and away we'll go...

Will you walk awhile, my darling,
Walk awhile with me,
Through falling snow and white moonbeams?
Oh, not a breath of winter, icy as you please,
Could chill the warmth your presence brings...

Will you walk awhile, my darling,
Walk awhile with me,
While all the world in starlight sleeps?
We'll leave beneath the heavens,
Amid the winter snows,
A single, crimson rose.
