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
|
I need you at the dimming of the day
|
