Summer is over
And winter is here
Sadness hides the sun
Once there was laughter
And now there is fear
Sadness hides the sun
People smile people say
There's no need for display
And they act as if life was fun
But they know in their heart
Daddy's coming one day
Sadness hides the sun
Once there were pastures
Once there were flowers
Sadness hides the sun
Now there is only
The dust and the hours
Sadness hides the sun
Yesterday came to pass
And not one blade of grass
Was left running to show one
And they feared it would come
But nothing was done
Well sadness hides the sun
What had happened
Who had the right
Sadness hides the sun
Why is there no answer
Why is there no light
Sadness hides the sun
This could all be a dream
As the fools have foreseen
Just what our rules could have done
There's only one way
You'll win peace from today
Before sadness hides the sun
