Elvis Costello - That Day is Done lyrics

Your rating:


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 



Chorus: 

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 

Where they announced her precious face 

I thought at once my heart would burst 

Still every time is like the first 



There was applause as she stepped up 

I wished that I could interrupt 

I made no sign, I made no sound 

I know I must stay underground 



Chorus 



That's why she walks, or so they say 

She always knew just what I needed 

But 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 



Chorus
