Lonely through the long weary day, 
Lonely in the gloaming I stray, 
And in fancy I am down where 
Someone's waiting for me. 
Down there where I long to be roaming, 
Noonlight tells me love's dream is o'er, 
Moonlight finds me wandering once more. 
 
Where the moon swings low, 
On The Alamo, 
In a garden fair where roses grow. 
In the tender light of the summer night, 
I can see her wander to and fro. 
For she said I'll wait by the garden gate, 
On the night I said I love you so. 
And in all my dreams it seems I go, 
Where the moon swings low 
On The Alamo.
