Today Yesterday Tomorrow (0166)

INTRO
Today – yesterday’s tomorrow
We hope for gladness from out of the sorrow
Yesterday we can’t disregard
It’s our history forever
And the future is yet to be…
But maybe never.

CHORUS
The words I say here today
Are ones from my yesterdays
Are the ones that will always stay
Here tomorrow.

VERSE 1
I’ve analysed, I’ve criticised
I’ve sympathised, I’ve realised
I’ve satisfied myself inside
I hope tomorrow my pride survives.

BRIDGE
So little it seems, so great in means
When I am cast away in dreams
Nurturing thoughts that raise their heads
Most of which just stay in bed.

CHORUS
The words I say here today
Are ones from my yesterdays
Are the ones that will always stay
Here tomorrow.

VERSE 2
When under a brighter light
When seen by more than I
How will I be taken?
Should I say goodbye?

VERSE 3
Will I be understood?
Probably mis-portrayed
In one way or another
Maybe someday
I will fade away
But my words will linger on.

CHORUS
The words I say here today
Are ones from my yesterdays
Are the ones that will always stay
Here tomorrow.
