Day is Done - Peter, Paul & Mary/Nana Mouskouri/The Brooklyn Bridge

  
   
Day is Done
Tell me why you're crying, my son,
I know you're frightened like ev'ryone.
Is it the thunder in the distance you fear
Will it help if I stay very near
I am here.

And if you take my hand, my son,
All will be well when the day is done,
And if you take my hand, my son,
All will be well when the day is done.

Day is done (when the day is done),
Day is done (when the day is done),
Day is done (when the day is done),
Day is done.

Do you ask why I'm sighing, my son
You shall inherit what mankind has done.
In a world filled with sorrow and woe
If you ask me why this is so
I really don't know.

And if you take my hand, my son,
All will be well when the day is done,
If you take my hand, my son,
All will be well when the day is done.

Day is done (when the day is done), 
Day is done (when the day is done),
Day is done (when the day is done),
Day is done.


Tell me why you're smiling, my son,
Is there a secret you can tell everyone
Do you know more than men that are wise
Can you see what we all must disguise
Through your loving eyes
