let the rest of the world go by

with someone like you

a pal so good and true

i'd like to leave it all behind and go and find

some place that's known to god alone

just a spot to call our own. we'll find perfect peace

where joys never cease

out there beneath the kindly sky. we'll build a sweet little nest

somewhere in the west

and let the rest of the world go by. (with someone like you
