Dimming of the Day

Richard Thompson

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
You pulled me like the moon pulls on the tide
You know just where I keep my better side

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Come the night you're only what I want
Come the night you could be my confidant

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Come the night you're only what I want
Come the night you could be my confidant

[Outro]
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
I need you at the dimming of the day
