Evenin',
Every night you come and you find me,
Must you always come and remind me,
That my gal is gone.

Hurry, evenin',
Don't you see I'm deep in your power,
Every minute seems like an hour,
Since my gal is gone.

Shadows fall
On the wall,
That's the time I miss her kiss most of all,
Even though I try
How can I go on?

Take me, evenin',
Let me sleep 'til gray dawn is breaking,
I don't care if I don't awaken,
For my gal is gone.

Shadows fall
On the wall,
That's the time I miss her kiss most of all,
Even though I try
How can I go on?

Take me, evenin',
Let me sleep 'til gray dawn is breaking,
I don't care if I don't awaken,
For my gal is gone.
