The Call Of The Canyon
Glenn Miller
Written by Billy Hill
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on August 8th 1940 with Ray Eberle
Just a melancholy echo
Lingring when the day is through
Its the call of the canyon
Once again Im dreaming of you
Every night I search the moonlight
Up and down the river shore
Its the call of the canyon
Maybe I will see you once more
Standing there alone by the ashes
Of the fire we said would never die
Will I ever find an ember
Burning from the days gone by?
Then I hear a lonely whisper
As a little spark I see
Its the call of the canyon
Bringing back your answer to me!
