Elvis Costello – That Day Is Done Lyrics  Share

(McCartney/MacManus)

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
When they announced her precious face
I thought at once my heart would burst
Still every time is like the first
[ That Day Is Done lyrics from

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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]
