When I first heard this song a few years ago, I was stopped in my tracks. This could be about us! Tom and I are the folks who live on the hill, veranda and all. How I love these words, written by Oscar Hammerstein II and Jerome Kern in 1937. By the way in case you wonder, there is information about 'Darby and Joan' here.
