0:15Someones opening up for business
0:21The morning rings the same old way
0:27But someone shouldve taught me forgiveness
0:33Now I see it in the cruel light of day
0:40Tell him hes done me a kindness
0:46She was going to leave anyway
0:52But love is such sweet blindness
0:56Til you see it in the cruel light of day
1:05Last night was just a comedy
1:08And I woke up like a walking tragedy
1:20And it was right in front of me
1:22But I just laughed and turned my eyes away
1:32So pour me another cup of coffee
1:37I ain't ever seen the city look so grey
1:43And those pretty little diamonds in the darkness
1:49They ain't no jewels in the cruel light of day
2:12No I ain't some accessory
2:13She can slip off from her back and just fold away
2:21I don't need no one undressing me
2:24When I wake up in the same suit everyday
2:35So someones opening up for business
2:41The shutters roll so familiarly
2:47And out of darkness comes relief sing the witless
2:53But I don't see it in the cruel light of day
