|
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. |
|
Refrain: |
|
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. |
|
(refrain) |
|
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? |
|
(refrain) |
