In the evening In the evening, darling When the sun goes down In the evening When the sun goes down It's so lonesome and lonesome When the one you love is not around Last night I was laying sleeping, darling All by myself Last night I was laying sleeping, darling All by myself And the one I really really love He was laying somewhere else The sun rises in the East It sets down over in the West Sun rises in the East, darling It sets down over in the West It's so hard, so hard to tell Who's gonna love you the best Goodbye, oh my old sweethearts and pals I'm goin' away I may come back to see you darling Some old rainy rainy day Oh in the evening, in the evening darling Maybe when the sun goes down When the sun goes down
