This old house is falling down arou nd my ears
I'm drowning in a river of m y tears
When all my will is gone, you hold me sway
I need you at the dimmin g of t he day.
You pull me like the moon pulls on the tide
You know just where I keep my better sid e
What days have come to keep us far apart ?
A broken promise or a broken heart
Now all the morning birds have wheeled away
I need you at the dimmin g of t he day
Come the night you're only what I want
Come the night you could be my co nfidan t
I see you on the street and in co mpany
Why don't you come and ease your mind wit h me
I'm living for the night we steal away
I need you at the dimmin g of t he day
Yes I need you at the dimmin g of t he day
