Beyond Terra - Tomorrows

TOMORROWS

Will "Today" ever become tomorrow
if "Tomorrows" never come?

Just as today is the future
of a day called yesterday;
"Tomorrows" are future days
of the day we call "Today".

Does not tomorrow hold our future
and the sum of lives lived today?
And if we stop living today
there'll be no future days of
the day we call "Today".

Yet, if we live full lives
in the life we live today
then there'll be life
in future days
of the day we call "Today".

As we look into the face
of a child born just yesterday
we see a face who lived his day
for every future day

So Yes... today become "Tomorrow"
if you live Tomorrow
Today.

And that's all I've got to say about
"Tomorrows",
Yesterdays
and Today.
