Lyrics:
(Mccartney/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 [Chorus:] 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 every time is like the first There was applause when she stepped up I wished that I could interrupt I made no sign, I made no sound I know I must stay underground [Chorus:] 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 [Chorus:]
