Lyrics

When the sun sets over the highlands
And sleeps beneath the sea
When shadows stretch o'er the lowlands
And starlight fills my eye
Then the eagle seeks his eyrie
And the gray owl finds his wings
And homeward bound my weary step
And the ending of the day

At the ending of the day
At the ending of the day

Now before the breathing fire
As the glowing embers burn
I bare my heart before you
Like a rock to wind or storm

And like the stone did I stand firmly?
Or did I wander soft away?
Have I done all, did I please you?
At the ending of the day
