Someone's opening up for business The morning rings the same old way But someone should've taught me forgiveness Now I see it in the cruel light of day
Tell him he's done me a kindness She was going to leave anyway But love is such sweet blindness 'til you see it in the cruel light of day
Last night was just a comedy And I woke up like a walking tragedy And it was right in front of me But I just laughed and turned my eyes away.
So pour me another cup of coffee I ain't ever seen the city look so grey And those pretty little diamonds in the darkness They ain't no jewels in the cruel light of day.
No I ain't some accessory She can slip off from her back and just fold away I don't need no one undressing me When I wake up in the same suit everyday.
So someone's opening up for business The shutters roll so familiarly And out of darkness comes relief sing the witless But I don't see it in the cruel light of day.
