Intro: 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’ll be all run Then you find you’ve jumped the gun Have to go back where you begun When the day is done When the night is cold Some get by and some get old Just to show life’s no 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 Instrumental When the games been fought Newspaper blown cross the court Lost much sooner than you would’ve thought Now the game’s been fought When the part is through Seems so very sad for you Didn’t do the things you were meant to do Now there’s no time start anew Now the part is 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
