Dimming of the Day Songtext
von Rice, Rice, Hillman & Pedersen

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 pull me like the moon pulls on the tide.
You know just where I keep my better side.
Uh-uh-uh. Uh-uh-uh. Uh-uh-uh.


What days have come to keep us 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 confidante.
Uh-uh-uh. Uh-uh-uh. Uh-uh-uh.

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.
I need you at the dimming of the day.
