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 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 ease 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
