|
If you want money in your pocket
|
And a top hat on your head
|
A hot meal on your table
|
And a blanket on your bed
|
|
Well today is grey skies
|
Tomorrow is tears
|
You'll have to wait til yesterday is here
|
|
I'm going to New York City
|
And I'm leaving on a train
|
And if you want to stay behind and wait
|
Til I come back again
|
|
Well today is grey skies
|
And tomorrow is tears
|
You'll have to wait til yesterday is here
|
|
If you want to go
|
Where the rainbows end
|
You'll have to say goodbye
|
All our dreams come true
|
Baby up ahead
|
And it's out where your memories lie
|
|
Well the road's out before me
|
The moon is shining bright
|
What I want you to remember
|
As I disappear tonight
|
|
Today is grey skies
|
Tomorrow is tears
|
You'll have to wait til yesterday is here
|
