EVERY DAY ANOTHER HAIR TURNS GREY
(Mike Hugg)
Manfred Mann - 1968
In her house, happy she seems
But she's living on mem'ries and dreams
How she dearly longs to recover
Her life when she was a young mother
And ev'ry day another hair turns grey
Yes, ev'ry day another hair turns grey
In her house as mother and wife
She was leading an ordin'ry life
Now she finds so much is missing
Gone is the love, the laughter and kissing
And ev'ry day another hair turns grey
Yes, ev'ry day another hair turns grey
Her children are all married now
She misses so the noise and row
That children make....
(Sound of children playing)
In her house she looks to the past
When first married, the loving was fast
And her husband, once a good lover
Now he seems to be more like a brother
And ev'ry day another hair turns grey
Yes, ev'ry day another hair turns grey
And ev'ry day another hair turns grey
Yes, ev'ry day another hair turns grey
Ev'ry day
