Emmylou Harris - Dimming of the Day Lyrics

Lyrics Dimming of the Day - Emmylou Harris




This old house is fallin′ down around my ears
I'm drowning in the river of my tears
When all my will is gone, hold me sway
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 bad side
For 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 confidant
I see you on the street and company
Why don't you come and heal your mind with me?
I'm living for the day we steal away
I need you at the dimming of the day
I need you at the dimming of the day
