When you come to the end of a perfect day

And you sit alone with your thought

While the chimes ring out with a carol gay

For the joy that the day has brought

Do you think what the end of a perfect day

Can mean to a tired heart

When the sun goes down with a flaming ray

And the dear friends have to part

Well this is the end of a perfect day

Near the end of a journey too;

But it leaves a thought that is big and strong

With a wish that is kind and true

For mem'ry has painted this perfect day

With colors that never fade

And we find at the end of a perfect day

The soul of a friend we've made
