At the End of a Long Lonely Day Lyrics

At the end of a long lonely day without you
When the world seems to fall in my face
I'm all right through the day but the day fades away
And the long lonely night takes it's place

Another day to wish that you were here
I dread each lonely night that's filled with tears
Oh I've tried and I've tried but these are tears that I can't hide
At the end of a long lonely day

(Guitar solo)

At the end of the day I go up to my room
And I watch while the sun fades away
And the loneliness there brings me grief and despair
At the end of along lonely day

Another day to sit alone and cry
It makes no difference if I live or die
With the world locked outside I just hang my head and cry
At the end of a long lonely day
At the end of a long lonely day

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
