A Sentimental Date with Perry Como
 
When Day Is Done
 
When day is done 
and shadows fall 
I dream of you! 
 
When day is done 
I think of all 
the joys we knew! 
 
That yearning, returning, 
to hold you in my arms, 
won't go love, I know love, 
without you, night has lost it's charms! 
 
When day is done 
and grass is wet 
with twilight's dew, 
my lonely heart is sinking 
with the sun! 
 
Although I miss your tender kiss 
the whole day through, 
I miss you most of all 
when day is done!
 
< instrumental verse >
 
Although I miss your tender kiss 
the whole day through, 
I miss you most of all 
when day is done!
