Tomorrow used to be a day away
Now love is gone and you're into someone far away.
I never thought the day would come
When I would see his hand, not mine,
holding onto yours because I could not find the time.
Now I can't deny
nothing lasts forever
I don't want to leave
and I see the tear drops in your eyes
I don't want to live to see the day we say goodbye

Alone as I sit and watch the trees
Won't you tell me if I scream will they bend down and listen to me
And it makes me wonder if I know the words will you come
Or will you laugh at me
Or will I run
Little boy says to me,
"Where you goin' now son"
I said, "I don't know where I'm goin' boy
I only know where I'm from"
And it makes me wonder
If the stars shine when my eyes close

I saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheek told me something was wrong
I asked her what it was
She looked away and said my daddy's home.
I knew what that meant
It meant that I could never see her again
I had seen this once before
I didn't wanna deal with it anymore
Look away she said, as she turned to me
And when I tried to hold her, I couldn't let her be
Let her be, Let her be

Time, why you punish me
Like a wave bashing into the shore
You wash away my dreams.
Time, why you walk away
Like a friend with somewhere to go
You left me crying
Can you teach me about tommorrow
And all the pain and sorrow
Running free
Cause tomorrow's just another day
And I don't believe in time
Time, I don't understand
Children killing in the street
Dying for the color of red

Trouble with the world is we're too busy to think about it, all right
Why is there a rebel flag hanging from the state house walls
Tired of hearin' this shit about heritage not hate
Time to make the world a better place
Why must we hate one another
Well no matter what we gotta live together
Just that you don't look like me, tell me what do you see

Mama please don't go
Won't you stay here for one more day
I've been your boy for so long now
There's so much I still have to say
Sky rips open, and I hold my heart in my hand
Like a soldier on his very last day
Cried myself to sleep that night, and I listened
As I heard the angels sing
[Chorus:]
Sha la la la Sha la la la, I'm going home.
Sha la la la Sha la la la, I'm going home.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth
Come on try and tell me what you're talkin about
Those things you're dealing with, you're living a lie
Every time I see you it makes me wanna cry
Sometimes we'd laugh and talk, seems like yesterday
Then you let the white horse come and take you away
They came to get you, it was cold and black
The wheels were in motion, there was no turning back

You and me
We come from different worlds
You like to laugh at me
When I look at other girls
Sometimes you're crazy
And you wonder why
I'm such a baby
Cause the Dolphins make me cry
[Chorus:]
Well there's nothing I can do
I only wanna be with you
You can call me your fool
Only wanna be with you
Put on a little Dylan
sitting on a fence
I say that line is great

She sits alone by a lamppost
trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind
She says Dad's the one I love the most
but Stipe's not far behind
She lets me in
only tell me where's she's been
when she's had too much to drink
I say that I don't care I just run my hands
through her dark hair and I pray to God
you gotta help me fly away
And just:

With a little love, and some tenderness
We'll walk upon the water
We'll rise above this mess
With a little peace, and some harmony
We'll take the world together
We'll take 'em by the hand
'Cause I've got a hand for you
'Cause I wanna run with you
Yesterday, I saw you standing there
Your head was down, your eyes were red
No comb had touched your hair

You got your big girl
Now you've got your young one too
Wondering if some day I could have them
the way I once had you
I remember your crazy remarks
We'd get drunk and go out after dark
Searching for someone we could take home
[Chorus:]
You don't wanna be alone
You don't want to see the sun go down
You don't wanna open the door and see her go
One step and tomorrow comes
