In the quiet alleys of my mind Where I go from time to time The busy streets are miles away from me In the quiet alleys of my mind The quiet alleys of my mind In the unkept corners of my room That have seldom seen the bristles of a broom There are dusty stacks to shuffle through In the unkept corners of my room In the quiet alleys of my mind Outside my window The trees are dressing for a fling The birds and flowers Paint these hills the colors of Spring That's where I go to find your face A dimpled smile that cannot be erased Among all the treasures I have saved That's where I go to find your face In the quiet alleys of my mind Outside my window The trees are dressing for a fling The birds and flowers Paint these hills the colors of Spring As long as my heart beats the time There'll be a tangled knot that never will unwind And a brilliant light that will always shine In the quiet alleys of my mind The quiet alleys of my mind
