It’s Been A Long Day

The day is done the peach is gone
the city lights are coming on
and all around the world a golden sky
Some of us got shrimp to boil
and some will burn the midnight oil
some of us just sit and say
my oh my
that’s that we made our way

It’s been a long day
It’s been a long long day
It’s been a long day

In Hong Kong there’s a traffic jam
a cloud of smoke over Amsterdam
there are factories and conflicts
and the day ain't over yet
The greatest minds are dining out
tango dancers twist and shout
someone helped someone hurt
someone gave what they could give
someone took what they could get
that’s that we made our way

It’s been a long day
It’s been a long long day
It’s been a long day

In the lamplight of a combine in the candle of a monk
in the laser and the bonfire and the shiny eyes of the town drunk
a confidence accrues to the dawn not far away
in the last light of the long day

It’s been a long day
It’s been a long long day
It’s been a long day

Well the day is done the peach is gone
the city lights are coming on
and all around the world a golden sky
and we all did some quiet good
went peacefully through the neighborhood
or so it seemed to me as I went walking

bye! bye!
It’s been a long day
It’s been a long long day
It’s been a long day
