I could write about

A million tomorrows

All those tomorrows

Writing about yesterday.

 

When tomorrow

Turns to life

Yesterday is only strife

Times to remember.

 

I fall on times

That felt good

Times that were good

But only yesterdays.

 

Today turns and

Only sees with blind eyes,

Only yesterday When the time

 has come to pay.

 

I’ve loved forever

That lasted only days.

She loved me also

He loved me also.

 

One was based

On flesh and blood

One was based 

Feeling held in love.

 

Now they’ve gone

Away forever

Always never

Always never

 

So my life is

Always tomorrow

Always tomorrow

And will always 

be yesterday.
