The sun never shone that day

From an early dawn the sky was grey

I never should have walked away

I know that now, but I'm here to say:



Everybody walks away

Everybody's led astray

Breaking every plan to stay

It happens all the time

The sun never shone that day

From an early dawn the sky was grey

I never should have walked away

I see that now, but it's hard to show



Everybody's got to go

Everybody tells you so

Everybody wants to know

Why it happens all the time



I can't see the point of turning everything upside down

I can't see the point of greeting everything with a frown

I can't see the point of painting black or white

I can't see the point of leaving everybody full of doubt



The sun never shone that day

From an early dawn the sky was grey

I never should have walked away

I know that now, but I'm here to say



Everybody holds their own

Everybody lives alone

Everybody hogs the phone

It happens all the time



Everybody feels the strain

Everybody holds the pain

Everybody stays the same

It happens all the time



I can't see the point of turning everything upside down

I can't see the point of greeting everything with a frown

I can't see the point of painting black or white

I can't see the point of leaving everybody full of doubt



The sun never shone that day

The sun never shone that day
