That Day Is Done – Elvis CostelloBy I feel such sorrow, I feel such shameI know I won’t arrive on timeBefore whatever out there is goneWhat can I do, that day is doneIt’s just a promise that I madeI said I’d walk in her paradeHot scalding tears I thought would flowStill in my heart they’ll never show[Chorus:]That day is doneThat day is doneYou know where I’ve gone I won’t be coming backThat day is doneWell I recall the time and placeWhen they announced her precious faceI thought at once my heart would burstStill every time is like the firstThere was applause when she stepped upI wished that I could interruptI made no sign, I made no soundI know I must stay underground[Chorus]That’s why she walks, or so they sayShe always knew just what I neededNow if she would just look my wayOne time before they proceedShe sprinkles flowers in the dirtThat’s when a thrill becomes a hurtI know I’ll never see her faceShe walks away from my resting place[Chorus] www.pillowlyrics.com419786497975 88k 20
