Dimming of the Day

This old house is falling down around my ears

I'm drowning in the river of my tears

When all my will is gone you hold me sway

I need you at the dimming of the day

You pulled me like the moon pulls on the tide

You know just where I keep my better side

Ah,ah,ah,ah,ah,ah,ah,ah,ah

What days have come to keep us far apart

A broken promise or a broken heart

Now all the bonny birds have wheeled away

I need you at the dimming of the day

Come the night,you're only what I want

Come the night you could be my confidant

Ah,ah,ah,ah ah,ah,ah,ah,ah

Come the night you're only what I want

Come the night you could be my confident

Ah,ah,ah,ah ah,ah,ah,ah,ah

I see you on the street and in company

Why don't you come and ease your mind with me?

I'm livin' for the night we steal away

I need you at the dimming of the day

I need you at the dimming of the day
