Every day I work
Every day's the same
The sun is going down when I get home
And every day gets worse
Every day I curse the one who
Left me here alone
Every night I take
Something for my sleep
Every night I dream the world away
And when the morning breaks
I wake and see it's just another
Long black letter day
Don't cry (don't cry)
Don't start (don't start)
Don't fret your (don't fret your)
Poor heart (poor heart)
You know it's just another
Long black letter day [x2] SOLO [x1]
Excuse me please
Do you have the time?
And can you tell me what's it matter anyway?
Please pardon me sir
Do you know the date?
What is the number?
It's just another
Long black letter day
Don't cry (don't cry)
Don't start (don't start)
Don't fret your (don't fret your)
Poor heart (poor heart)
You know it's just another
Long black letter day [x2]
Just another
Long black letter day (long black letter day)
