I ALWAYS THOUGHT I 'D HAVE TOMORROW

by Ann Mortifee

 

How can this be
What's happening to me
How can this be
Tell me that it's just a dream and I'll awaken
Tell me I'll awaken in the morning light

I always thought I'd have tomorrow
I thought today would never end
I always thought I could lend
Or borrow time
I always thought that I would find
The years would be mine
To live to taste, to hold, to waste.
I thought there would always
Always be time

What do I think now
What do I feel

So many thoughts
But none of them seem real
So many longings
Locked so deep in my heart
They call, they wake
They burst they break
I thought there would always
Always be time

All the things I've left undone
All the dreams that wanted the sun
All the hopes that fade too soon
Lost on the tide of an ebbing moon

All the life I've left unlived
All the love I still have to give
All the songs I've left unsung
Like bells on a hill that have never rung
