Lyrics
[Verse 1]
This old house is fallin' 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
[Verse 2]
You pull me like the moon pulls on the tide
You know just where I keep my better side
[Verse 3]
What days have come to keep us far apart
A broken promise or this broken heart?
Now all the bonny birds have wheeled away
I need you at the dimming of the day
[Verse 4]
Come the night, you're only what I want
Come the night, you could be my confidante
[Verse 5]
I see you on a 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
Yes, I need you at the dimming of the day
Written by: Richard Thompson
