The Son Never Shines (On Closed Doors) - Live

And, yeah, this is a song we'd like to take you back to a Drunken Lullabies album
And a, this is a little thing we call "The Sun Never Shines (on Closed Doors)"

I saw her there fade from afar
Her hair grey charcoal, takes a drag from her tar
I kissed her a smile but her blood-red shot eye
Said, "The sun never shines on closed doors"
(Flogging Molly)

It's been eight long years since I saw
The woman who's laboured since the day I was born
These wrinkles now face to that cold, dark, damp place
Where the sun never shines on closed doors

She says, "The sun never shines on closed doors (yeah)
I open to find only hurricanes blow
Take me away to the green fields of May
Because the sun never shines on closed doors"

Death comes like a thief in the night
To steal while you sleep, the soul's flickering light
Well, maybe it's then, she says, "I'll see you again
Because the sun never shines on closed doors"
(Everybody!)

She says, "The sun never shines on closed doors
I open to find only hurricanes blow
Take me away to the green fields of May
Because the sun never shines on closed doors"

Los Angeles
And we all go the same way home
Yeah, we all go the same way home
(That's right)

Yeah, we all go the same way home
Yeah, we all go the same way home
Yeah, we all go the same way home
(If you know it, then join in, okay?)
We all go the same way home (yeah)
Yeah, we all go the same way home
Yeah, we all go the same way home
Yeah, we all go the same way home
Yeah, we all go the same way home

(Flogging Molly, we love you)
Oh, yes, that was for two-year-old Lili, okay
Okay, before we go any further
It's getting harder and harder right now
To put your hands in your pockets, go anywhere these fucking days
But to a, to each and every one of ya
For coming out here and making this a lovely occasion with us
Thank you so much, indeed, tonight, yes
