The Old Lamplighter

Song: The Old Lamplighter Artist: Slim Whitman
（Please click: American English World Forum）

He made the night a little brighter wherever he would go
The old lamplighter of long long ago
           
His snowy hair was so much whiter beneath the candle glow
The old lamplighter of long long ago 

You'll hear the patter of his feet as he came toddling down the street
His smile would hide a lonely heart you see
           
If there were sweethearts in the park he'd pass a lamp and leave it dark
Remembering the days that used to be
           
For he recalls when dreams were new he loved someone who loved him too
Who walks with him alone in memory
           
He made the night a little brighter wherever he would go
The old lamplighter of long long ago
