A day is a-comin' when the clouds hide the sunshine
Rains pourin' in and they're floodin' your ground
And the leaves on your trees fall as fast as you count them
You cry for help but there's no one around

The road that you walk on is long and depressin'
The flame from your candle blows out in the wind
And the flowers by your roadside are rapidly fadin'
You're lookin' for love, you will never find him

You'll carry on walkin' but you'll hinder your breathin'
Your body and your mind they should be in the sky
'Cause you're tryin' so hard not to be overtaken
You'll lose in the end and you'll burn out inside

Then someday your sunshine will break through your cloud line
Red, cream and velvet will come from the sea
And the road that you walk on won't seem so depressin'
You'll come to a gate and behind it see me
