Someone Else's Tomorrow Lyrics
Have you ever been baptized in the cool winter water
On a Sunday morning when the sky was gray?
You filed out of the churchyard, so cold it was silver
To gold, tan, and blue cars, and the cars drove away
All the memories fade, send the ghosts on their way
Tell them they've had their day, it's someone else's tomorrow
The tall and the tiny ships on the water
Farther and farther, floating away
Will never return now, all wooden and burned out
They echo and groan now in their salty graves
All the memories fade, send the the ghosts on their way
Tell them they've had their day, it's someone else's tomorrow
Someone else's tomorrow
On a Sunday morning when the sky was gray?
You filed out of the churchyard, so cold it was silver
To gold, tan, and blue cars, and the cars drove away
All the memories fade, send the ghosts on their way
Tell them they've had their day, it's someone else's tomorrow
Farther and farther, floating away
Will never return now, all wooden and burned out
They echo and groan now in their salty graves
All the memories fade, send the the ghosts on their way
Tell them they've had their day, it's someone else's tomorrow
Someone else's tomorrow

surprised there are no more comments @ this spiritual treasure. it's a poignant elegy, bare bones, a temporary heart-stopping journey in whatever purgatory you visit from time to time. it makes me skip a long bluesy beat every time i hear it, pausing to remember not only my own fallen heroes along the span of life, but also my personal skirmishes with survival, regret, and adjusting to heartbreak.
according to my last.fm account, i played this song 82 times IN A ROW today. wow. that's over 5.5 hours! beautiful song....
akahamlet, I can totally understand why! It's an amazing song.
