The Dimming Of The Day

The Dimming Of The Day
This old house is falling down around my ears
i'm drowning in a river of my tears
when all my will is gone, you hold me sway
i need you at the dimming of the day
You pull me like the moon pulls on the tide
you know just where i keep my better side
What days have come to keep us far apart?
a broken promise or a broken heart
now all the bonnie 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 confident
I see you on the street in company
why don't you come and ease your mind with me?
i'm living for the night we steal away
i need you at the dimming of the day
oh i need you at the dimming of the day
