This old house is fa lling down
a round my ears
I'm drow ning in a ri ver
of my tears
When all my will is gone
you hold me sway
And I need you at the di mming
of the day
You pulled me like the moon
pulls on the tide
You know just where
I keep my be tter side
What days have come
to keep us far a part
A bro ken pro mise
or a bro ken heart
Now all the bo nny birds
have wheeled a way
And I need you
at the di mming of the day
Come the night
you're on ly what I want
Come the night
you could be my con fi dant
I see you on the street
and in com pa ny
Why don't you come and ease
your mind with me
I'm li ving for the night
we steal a way
And I need you
at the di mming of the day
Yes I need you
at the di mming of the day
