Seems we're always doing something to hurt each other,
but you know you never really hurt me until the fourth verse of this song.
Blue eyes looking through an old grey curtain
somebody forgot to pull down
Spiderweb memories hiding for certain,
the lonely faces of clowns
Running on beaches surrounded by leeches,
you never see children at play
If there's no tomorrow for us,
then I'll live yesterdays
Was love the stranger that stood in the
doorway and begged us to come in?
Hungry and eager we ran to the keyhole
and listened for voices of friends
People were lying and people were crying,
we never heard children at play
If there's no tomorrow for us,
then I'll live yesterdays
Ride on the wing of a sterile cowboy,
indifferent is what you will be
Lie on the floor and let four hands touch
you and two of the hands will be me
No one is coming, yet someone is coming,
oh could it be children to play?
If there's no tomorrow for us,
then I'll live yesterdays
Dark is the canyon when life is beginning
and secrets are easy to keep
Soft is the baby that's resting inside you,
so take it please while it's asleep
Knives that have cut you and others have
touched you have taken our children away
If there's no tomorrow for us,
then I'll live yesterdays
Love is the night that has taken you from me
and strangers are stealing my sleep
Cigarette mountains and fantasy
fountains and I lay me down to weep
But something inside me cannot be denied me,
there must be some children to play
If there's no tomorrow for us,
then I'll live yesterday
you
