When the Day Goes Down

Well don't you cry now -

Don't go drowning in your tears

Haven't you learnt anything

After all these years?

All God's little children

Are beautiful & pure

And you're as good

As all of them

Of this you can be sure

And we are just the same

Underneath the shadows

Of the sun

And we are just the same

No more no less than anyone

All the people

Of this lonely world

Have got some pain inside

Don't go thinking

You're the only one

Who ever broke right down

And cried

That's when the rain comes down

That's when the rain comes falling down

And this is for the broken dreamers

This is for vacant souls

This is for the hopeless losers

This is for the helpless fools

And the burnt out

And the useless

And the lonely & the weak

And the lost & the degraded

& the too dumb to speak

And the day goes down

That's when the day

Goes down
