Your Tomorrows

this is a bad day for good-byes

this city will not be the same without you

even the weathergod cries

as he has lost a son today

you still had sand in your eyes

but again you were drawn to other places

you never stuck around very long

you always needed to move along

I hoped you would find what you are looking for

out there in the world somewhere

and I hoped life would treat you well

never counting on seeing you again

everything seemed to happen today

tomorrow was just so far away

and how much we laughed back then in may

do you remember?

testing newest records until the morning rose

lighting candles and drinking way to much wine

there is no subject we haven’t spoken about

we fantasized, philosophised

in my old flat at that worn down kitchen table

that was too small for two plates but not our dreams

I hoped you would find what you are looking for

out there in the world somewhere

and I hoped life would treat you well

never counting on seeing you again

everything seemed to happen today

tomorrow was just so far away

and how much we laughed back then in may

do you remember?

and now you are home at last

but your tomorrows are over

your name in stone grey in grey

and then rain again

rain again

everything seemed to happen today

tomorrow was just so far away

how much we laughed back then in may
