Nana Mouskouri - Day Is Done

Day Is Done

Tell me why you are crying, my son



Are you frightened like most everyone



Is it the thunder in the distance you hear



Will it help if I stay very near, I am here







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







So you ask why I'm sighing, my son



You must inherit what mankind has done



In this world full of sorrow and woe



If you ask me why this is so, I don't know







Why are you 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
