Day Is Done |
|
When the day is done |
|
Down to earth then sinks the sun |
|
Along with everything that was lost and won |
|
When the day is done. |
|
When the day is done |
|
Hope so much your race will be all run |
|
Then you find you jumped the gun |
|
Have to go back where you began |
|
When the day is done. |
|
When the night is cold |
|
Some get by but some get old |
|
Just to show life's not made of gold |
|
When the night is cold. |
|
When the bird has flown |
|
Got no-one to call your own |
|
Got no place to call your home |
|
When the bird has flown. |
|
When the game's been fought |
|
Newspaper blown across the court |
|
Lost much sooner than you would have thought |
|
Now the game's been fought. |
|
When the party's through |
|
Seems so very sad for you |
|
Didn't do the things you meant to do |
|
Now there's no time to start anew |
|
Now the party's through. |
|
When the day is done |
|
Down to earth then sinks the sun |
|
Along with everything that was lost and won |
|
When the day is done. |
