Lyrics:

I already wish it was tomorrow
I already wish it was tomorrow
I kept the things you said to borrow
The paper wings, the golden rings, the pretty things…
We can't see the sky for the streetlight
And we can't seem to try for fear that we might
Make it just to break it
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow tomorrow
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow tomorrow
I'm hawing and I'm hemming in
The fray, the fret, the fear I think I'll stay another day
Another day, another year
We can't see today for tomorrow
We can't seem to sit with our sorrow
Whatever I have today, I promise I will give away
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow tomorrow
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow tomorrow
I read the story as you told me
I took your look to bed to hold me
I sang along with suicides
With cigarettes and unpaid debts and pony rides
And the birds all flew off of their perches
And the people all ran out of the churches
In praise for the day
They were sure they'd scared away
Oh when are you ever going to learn?
Oh when are you ever going to teach me?
As long as you are reaching, you can reach me
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow tomorrow
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow tomorrow
