Sunbeams are gently fading, slowly fading
And birds are waiting to do their mating
When eventide is nigh, moonbeams are descending
The day is ending, a happy ending
The sun is sinking below the western sky

[Chorus]
Every little breeze is sighing of love at sundown
Every little bird is resting and feather nesting at sundown
Each little rosebud is sleeping, while shadows are creeping
In a little cottage cozy the world seems rosy at sundown

Where a loving smile will greet me and always meet me at sundown
I seem to sigh, I'm in heaven
When night is falling and love is calling me home
Daydreams through fields of clover, will soon be over

And happy hours 'mid sunny flowers will wait another day
Sweet dreams have just begun, dear, the day is done, dear
When skies grow dimmer
And stars will glimmer along the starlit way

[Chorus]
Where a loving smile will greet me and always meet me at sundown
I seem to sigh, I'm in heaven
When night is falling and love is calling me home
