(Thompson)



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

(Uh-uh-uh) (uh-uh-uh) (uh-uh-uh-uh)



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 confidante

(Uh-uh-uh) (uh-uh-uh) (uh-uh-uh-uh)



I see You in the street in company

Why don't You come and ease You 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
