Touch me in the morning
|
Then just walk away
|
We don't have tomorrow
|
But we had yesterday
|
Hey, wasn't it me who said
|
That nothin' good's gonna last forever
|
And wasn't it me who said
|
Let's just be glad for the time together
|
Must've been hard to tell me
|
That you've given all you had to give
|
I can understand your feelin' that way
|
Ev'rybody's got their life to live
|
|
Well, I can say goodbye
|
In the cold morning light
|
But I can't watch love die
|
In the warmth of the night
|
If I've got to be strong
|
don't you know I need to have tonight
|
When you're gone, till you go
|
I need to lie here and
|
Think about the last time
|
You'll touch me in the morning
|
Then just close the door
|
Leave me as you found me
|
Empty like before
|
|
Hey, wasn't it yesterday
|
We used to laugh at the wind behind us
|
Didn't we run away and hope
|
That time wouldn't try to find us
|
Didn't we take each other
|
To a place where no one's ever been
|
Yeah I realy need you near me tonight
|
'Cause you'll never take me there again
|
Let me watch you go with the sun in my eyes
|
|
We've seen how love can grow
|
Now we'll see how it dies
|
If I've got to be strong
|
Don't you know I need to have tonight
|
When you're gone, till you go
|
I need to hold you until the tie
|
Your hands reach out and
|
|
Touch me in the morning
|
Then just walk away
|
We don't have tomorrow
|
But we had yesterday
|
We're blue and gold
|
and we could feel one another living
|
We walked with a dream to hold
|
And we could take what the world was giving
|
There's no tomorrow here
|
There's only love and the time to chase it
|
Yesterday's gone my love
|
There's only now and it's time to face it
|
