The World Is Waiting For The Sunrise    (1919)

Down in the lazy west rides the moon
Warm as a night in June
Stars shimm'ring soft in a bed of blue
While I am calling and calling you

Sweetly you are dreaming
As the dawn come slowly streaming
Making love in your bower
Brief our trysting hour

Dear one the world is waiting for the sunrise
Ev'ry rose is heavy with dew
The thrush on high, his sleepy mate is calling
And my heart is calling you!

Dear one the world is waiting for the sunrise
Ev'ry rose is heavy with dew
The thrush on high, his sleepy mate is calling
And my heart is calling you!

Lyrics by Eugene Lockhart.
Composed by Ernest Seitz.
Recorded by Isham Jones; John Steel; Les Paul and Mary Ford.
