Cruel Light Of Day |
| Someone’s opening up for business |
| The morning rains the same old way |
| But someone should’ve taught me forgiveness |
| Now I see it in the cruel light of day |
| Telling me he’s done me a kindness |
| She was going to leave anyway |
| But love is such sweet politeness |
| Till you see it in the cruel light of day |
| Last night was just a comedy |
| And I woke up like a walking tragedy |
| And it was right in front of me |
| But I just laughed and turned my eyes away |
| So pour me another cup of coffee |
| I ain’t ever seen the city look so grey |
| And those pretty little diamonds in the darkness |
| Ain’t no jewels in the cruel light of day |
| No I ain’t some accessory |
| She can slip off from her back and just fold away |
| I don’t need no-one undressing me |
| When I wake up in the same suit every day |
| So someone’s opening up for business |
| The shutters roll so familiarly |
| And out of darkness comes relief, sing the witless |
| But I don’t see it in the cruel light of day |
| No I don’t see it in the cruel light of day |
