elvis costello - that day is done lyrics

Loading...

i feel such sorrow, i feel such shame
i know i won’t arrive on time
before whatever out there is gone
what can i do, that day is done

it’s just a promise that i made
i said i’d walk in her parade
hot scalding tears i thought would flow
still in my heart they’ll never show

that day is done that day is done
you know where i’ve gone
i won’t be coming back
that day is done

well i recall the time and place
when they announced her precious face
i thought at once my heart would burst
still every time is like the first

there was applause when she stepped up
i wished that i could interrupt
i made no sign, i made no sound
i know i must stay underground

that day is done that day is done
you know where i’ve gone
i won’t be coming back
that day is done

that’s why she walks, or so they say
she always knew just what i needed
now if she would just look my way
one time before they proceed

she sprinkles flowers in the dirt
that’s when a thrill becomes a hurt
i know i’ll never see her face
she walks away from my resting place

that day is done that day is done
you know where i’ve gone
i won’t be coming back
that day is done
