[Verse 1]
When shadows fall
And trees whisper, "day is ending"
My thoughts are ever wending home, oh babe

[Verse 2]
Now, when crickets call
My heart is forever yearning, babe
Once more to be returning home, mmm, home

[Bridge]
When the hills conceal the setting sun, baby
Stars begin to peeping one by one
Oh, one by one, babe, oh babe

[Verse 3]
Night covers all
And though fortune may forsake me
Oh, sweet dreams will ever take me home
