Words

Here comes the sunrise
Another chance to put it right
To cast off this shadow
That burns in the back of your mind
What will you do
When all your days are gone?

Here stands your woman
You tell her hurry up and wait
But a good woman can always find a better man
And then you’ll always be too late
What will you do
When all your days are gone?

Here stands your daughter
But you can’t listen when you talk this loud
Never tell her she’s good enough
Never tell her that your proud
What will you do
When all your days are gone…

Here stands your father
But you can’t see him through all of your blame
He’s working 18 hrs just like you
Don’t you think he feels the same?

Here comes the sundown
You put everyone to bed
(And then it hits you)
Love ain’t the blanket
Love is the thread
Love is the moment
When you’re way in over your head
What will you do
When all your days are gone?
