Tomorrow Is Yesterday

Barely begun, always said tomorrow will be the day

But now tomorrow is yesterday

And I am living on borrowed time

I am not moving yet that wall of shadow comes closer all the time

I throw myself into my one passion

And pretend that tomorrow isn't yesterday

You came and I was no longer alone

Yet you're not here, really, you're a ghost drifting along

When you look at me your eyes see right through me

I am a window the ails your heart

I see you better than you think,

Hear that listless sad tone that taints your voice

Am I more alone with you than I ever was?

Now, as the end nears, we finally stand face to face

We see each other now, and nothing else

I speak and for the first time you listen

Even if it is to say good by

Now I can die with a smile on my face

Knowing that my mistakes will be righted

And you know though you aren't here

I whisper farewell and the wind carries my voice to your ears

For a second you stop, on your never-ending quest

You look up into the sky and you smile

And whisper goodby

Wait for me on the other side
