Tomorrows Never Come

The most elusive day of the year....tomorrow. Some things can wait til then.
Some things shouldn't. Those things only come along once, and if you miss it,
you've just missed it. No more chances. Put off the little stuff if you like.
But don't put off the important stuff...like saying "I love you" or telling your
child how proud you are of him or her. You can do those things tomorrow, too.
But make sure you do it today as well. After all, tomorrows never really come.

Tomorrows
Never come
So why do you even try
To tell me
That someday
In some way
We may be together
Again
Don't you know that
Those somedays
Are just empty
Tomorrows
And tomorrows
Never come
They just fade
Away

What we had once
Was so special
Like no love
That's been before
Each time we parted
Little darling
You would leave me
Wanting more
Until the winds of fate
Carried us
In pursuit of different dreams
Chasing rainbows
Always out of reach
Two separate worlds
Of make believe

If tomorrow ever did arrive
Do you think that we could make
A life out of the pieces
Of yesterday's mistakes
If someday ever somehow came
Could the past still be undone
Does it really even matter
If tomorrows never come

For those who put off
til tomorrow
that which should be done
today
