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
|
You speed the ball 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.
