Paul McCartney

By Paul McCartney and Declan MacManus

I FEEL SUCH SORROW, I FEEL SUCH SHAME.
I KNOW I WON'T ARRIVE ON TIME
BEFORE WHATEVER OUT THERE IS GONE.
WHAT CAN I DO?
THAT DAY IS DONE.

IT'S JUST A PROMISE, THAT I MADE,
I SAID I'D WALK IN HER PARADE.
HOT SCALDING TEARS I THOUGHT WOULD FLOW,
STILL IN MY HEART, THEY'LL NEVER SHOW.

THAT DAY IS DONE, THAT DAY IS DONE,
YOU KNOW WHERE I'VE GONE,
I WON'T BE COMING BACK,
THAT DAY IS DONE.

WELL, I RECALL THE TIME AND PLACE
WHEN THEY ANNOUNCED HER PRECIOUS FACE.
I THOUGHT AT ONCE MY HEART WOULD BURST,
STILL, EV'RY TIME IS LIKE THE FIRST.

THERE WAS APPLAUSE WHEN SHE STEPPED UP,
I WISH THAT I COULD INTERRUPT.
I MADE NO SIGN, I MADE NO SOUND,
I KNOW I MUST STAY UNDERGROUND.

BUT THAT DAY IS DONE, THAT DAY IS DONE,
YOU KNOW WHERE I'VE GONE,
I WON'T BE COMING BACK,
THAT DAY IS DONE.

THAT'S WHY SHE WALKS, OR SO THEY SAY,
SHE ALWAYS KNEW JUST WHAT I NEEDED.
NOW IF SHE WOULD JUST LOOK MY WAY
ONE TIME BEFORE THEY PROCEED.

SHE SPRINKLES FLOWERS IN THE DIRT,
THAT'S WHEN A THRILL BECOMES A HURT.
I KNOW I'LL NEVER SEE HER FACE,
SHE WALKS AWAY FROM MY RESTING PLACE.

THAT DAY IS DONE, WELL, THAT DAY IS DONE,
YOU KNOW WHERE I'VE GONE,
I WON'T BE COMING BACK,
THAT DAY IS DONE.

WELL, YOU KNOW WHERE I'VE GONE,
I WON'T BE COMING BACK,
THAT DAY IS DONE.

UH -.
