I saw her there from afar Her hair grey charcoal Takes a drag from her tar I kissed her a smile But her blood red shot eye Said the son never shines on closed doors
It's been eight long years since I saw The woman who's labored Since the day I was born These wrinkles now face To that cold dark damp place Where the son never shines on closed doors
She said the son never shines on closed doors I open to find only hurricanes blow Take me away back to the green fields of May Because the son never shines on closed doors
Death comes like a thief in the night To steal while you sleep The soul's flickering light Well maybe it's then She said, I'll see you again Because the son never shines on closed doors
She said the son never shines on closed doors I open to find only hurricanes blow Take me away back to the green fields of May Because the son never shines on closed doors
And we all go the same way home Yeah we all go the same way home
