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.
