"I Won't Be There That Day" lyrics

"I Won't Be There That Day"

When the sun sets west and the birds fly south
When you can't rest in a stranger's house
And you can taste it in your mouth
Well I won't I won't be there that day

When you're heading north but you're looking east
Searching for that missing puzzle piece
You're trying to force the famine to feast
But I won't I won't be there that day

So come on come on throw it all away
And save your heart for a rainy day
For no one knows the price you'll pay
But I won't I won't be there that day

When the tide rolls in and your luck runs out
When it's sink or swim
When it's drink or draught
You can rest assured
You can have no doubt
That I won't I won't be there that day

So come on come on throw it all away
Save your heart for a rainy day
For no one knows the price you'll pay
But I won't I won't be there that day
No I won't I won't be there that day
