lyrics

Our future’s not yet written. It is a song that we have yet to hear. But it is on our lips like the city that we want to live in.

I never wanted to be anything in particular. I would simply start anew each day with you. And that is all I want, and it’s not too little. And I don’t fear we are too weak or too brittle.

When I woke up, I had no idea this tune would come to me. So maybe it’s just a variation on a theme I keep coming back to. Maybe it’s all I got to say, no chance of competing with the weight of yesterday. But it always seems to bear repeating.

No, I am never lonely after closing time, the puddles reflecting the neon signs. I might kick around looking for a better rhyme. I get sleepy but I feel fine. Not everything goes my way. I only ask not to be led astray. Whatever will be, will be, here and now, but there’ll be a brighter tomorrow somehow.
