Now if she would, just look my way
She always knew just what I needed
You know where I’ve gone, I won’t be coming back
Still in my heart, they’ll never show
That day is done, that day is done
That day is done, that day is done
That’s when a thrill becomes a hurt
I made no sign, I made no sound
I said I’d walk in her parade
One time before they proceed
That day is done
Still, every time is like the first
Hot scalding tears, I thought would flow
Before whatever out there is gone
I thought at once my heart would burst
You know where I’ve gone, I won’t be coming back
That day is done
She sprinkles flowers in the dirt
Well, I recall, the time and place
When they announced her precious face
What can I do? That day is done
That day is done
It’s just a promise, that I made
There was applause when she stepped up
That day is done, that day is done
I know I’ll never see her face
I know, I must stay underground
I wished that I could interrupt
That’s why she walks or so they say
You know where I’ve gone, I won’t be coming back
But you know where I’ve gone, I won’t be coming back
She walks away from my resting place
