When Day Is Done

Since you've gone away, one thing is clear to me
You were dearer than dear to me from the moment you came
Evenings by your side, I learned to love the night
But the loveliness of the night is no longer the same

When day is done and shadows fall, I dream of you
When day is done, I think of all the joys we knew
That yearnin' returnin' to hold you in my arms
Won't go, love, I know, love
Without you night has lost its charm

When day is done and grass is wet with twilight's dew
My lonely heart is sinkin' with the sun
Although I miss your tender kiss the whole day through
I miss you most of all when day is done
When day is done
