Tell me why you're crying, my son
 I know you're frightened, like everyone
 Is it the thunder in the distance you fear?
 Will it help if I stay very near? I am here
 
 And if you take my hand my son
 All will be well when the day is done
 And if you take my hand my son
 All will be well when the day is done
 Day is done, day is done, day is done, day is done
 
 Do you ask why I'm sighing, my son?
 You shall inherit what mankind has done
 In a world filled with sorrow and woe
 If you ask me why this is so, I really don't know
 
 And if you take my hand my son
 All will be well when the day is done
 And if you take my hand my son
 All will be well when the day is done
 
 Tell me why you're smiling my son
 Is there a secret you can tell everyone?
 Do you know more than men that are wise?
 Can you see what we all must disguise through your loving eyes?
 
 And if you take my hand my son
 All will be well when the day is done
 And if you take my hand my son
 All will be well when the day is done
 Day is done, day is done, day is done, day is done
 
 And if you take my hand my son
 All will be well when the day is done
 And if you take my hand my son
 All will be well when the day is done
 Day is done, day is done, day is done, day is done
