Verse:

Since you've gone a - way,  One thing is clear to me,

You were dear - er than dear to me,  From the mo - ment you came.

Eve - nings, by your side,  I learn'd to love the night,

But the love - li - ness of the night is no lon - ger the same.

 

Chorus:

When Day Is Done & shad - dows fall,  I dream of you;

When Day Is Done I think of all the joys we knew.

That yearn - ing re - turn - ing to hold you in my arms,

Won't go love,  I know love with - out you night has lost its charm.

When Day s Done & grass is wet with twi - light's dew,

My lone - ly heart is sink - ing like the sun.

Al-though I miss your ten - der kiss the whole day through,

I miss you most of all When Day Is Done.
