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 this way
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´ve 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
