There was a time
When tomorrow
Was just another day
When laying down
Was just another flight
Into the endless night

There was a day
When yesterday
Was a memory
When the night
Engulfed what was left
By the sun as it dozed
But now it seems
That tomorrow
Is just too far away
And yesterday
Is just the beginning
Of what I am today

No night so sweet
Or day complete
Nor the memory
Remaining true
Could live up to the dream
That only I could see
