Jimmy Durante — 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
