When Day Is Done Lyrics

Since you've gone away one thing is clear to meYou were dearer than dear to me from the moment you cameEvenings by your side I learned to love the nightBut the loveliness of the night is no longer the sameWhen day is done and shadows fall, I dream of youWhen day is done I think of all the joys we knewThat yearnin', returnin' to hold you in my armsWon't go love, I know love, without you night has lost its charmWhen day is done and grass is wet with twilight's dewMy lonely heart is sinkin' with the sunAlthough I miss your tender kiss the whole day throughI miss you most of all when day is doneWhen day is done
