Daytime Nightime Suffering

Paul McCartney · Other Songs - Paul McCartney

What does she get for all the love she gave you

There on the ladder of regrets?

Mighty river, give her all she gets



What does she get for all the love she gave you

There on the ladder of regrets?

Daytime nighttime suffering is all she gets



Where all the prizes for the games she entered

With little chance of much success?

Daytime nighttime suffering is all she gets



Come on, river, all the flow

Let your love of you people show

Come on, river, flow through me

Let your love of you people be

You are the river, I am the stream

Flow mighty river through me



What does it pay to play the leading lady

When the like the damsel in distress

Daytime nighttime suffering is all she gets



No less, no more

(No less, no more)

No sea, no shore

(No sea, no shore)



No sand, no pail

(No sand, no pail)

No fairy tale anymore



Come on, river, flow through me

Don't be stopped by insanity

Come on, river, overflow

Let your love for your neighbors show



You are the river, I am the stream

[Unverified] it

But if we forget it every now and then

But if you don't feel it, later on you'll regret it

And if we let it we could set it free, you and me
