Текст (слова) песни «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.
And I need you at the Dimming of the Day.

You pulled 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 confidant.

I see you on the street and 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.
Yes, I need you at the Dimming of the Day.
