Day Is Done Lyrics

Nana Mouskouri

Tell me why you are crying, my son,
I know you are frightened like everyone
Is it the thunder in the distance you hear
Will it help if I stay very near, I am here

Refrain:
And if you take my hand, my son,
All will be well when the day is done
And if you take my hand, my son
All will be well when the day is done
Day is done, when the day is done
Day is done, when the day is done
Day is done, when the day is done
Day is done

Do you ask why I'm sighing, my son,
You shall inherit what mankind has done
In a world filled with sorrow and woe
If you ask me why this is so, I really don't know
(Repeat Refrain)

Tell me why you are smiling, my son,
Is there a secret you can tell everyone
Do you know more than men that are wise
Can you see what we all must disguise,
through your loving eyes
(Repeat 1st 4 lines of refrain, 2x, then slowly fade)
