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
 You sped 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
