The Day Before Tomorrow - Adana Twins

Speeches won't be made today Clocks will carry on. Flowers won't be left in parks Work will still be done. People won't be dressed in black Babies will be born. No flags will fly, the sun will rise But we will know that you are gone. You who love to love and believed we can never give enough. It wakes me every single night thinking through the day Did you stop at any time Have doubts at any stage. Or were you calm or were you numb or happy just to get it done I've lived my life without regret until today And you who love to love And believed we can never give enough. I didn't get to say goodbye The day before the day Was trying to get to work on time that's why I turned away And missed the most important thing you ever tried to say I've lived my life without regret until today And you who love to love and believed we can never give enough. And you who hoped that underneath We all felt the same. That was until the day before the day, the day before the day The day before the day, oh the day before the day The day before the day, oh the day before the day Oh the day before the day, oh the day before the day.

I don't know what you wanna hear Things changing course, smiles fade to grin Now the moment's gone, just as I feared And I was hoping, and I was hoping this time No longer here, we were feeling bliss Don't hold your tongue, there's no time for tricks You've been closing up, I expected this But I was hoping that you'd stay open this time I know it won't be long I know you're almost gone Hold on, let me in before the day is over Just let me in before the day is over Say something soon, we might lose it all Something we can use to break our fall There's nothing left to do when we start to stall And I was hoping that we could hold it this time I know it won't be long I know you're almost gone Hold on, let me in before the day is over Just let me in before the day is over Let me in, let me in Just let me in before the day is over I can't take another day I could go insane There's only so much I can take I can't live this way I can't take another day I could go insane There's only so much I can take I can't live this way (I know it won't be long) let me in, let me in (I know you're almost gone) just let me in before the day is over Let me in, let me in Just let me in before the day is over

I must have left my house at eight because I always do My train, I'm certain, left the station just when it was due I must have read the morning paper going into town And having gotten through the editorial, no doubt I must have frowned I must have made my desk Around a quarter after nine With letters to be read And heaps of papers waiting to be signed I must have gone to lunch At half past 12 or so The usual place, the usual bunch And still on top of this, I'm pretty sure it must have rained The day before you came I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two And at the time, I never even noticed I was blue I must have kept on dragging Through the business of the day Without really knowing anything I hid a part of me away At five, I must have left There's no exception to the rule A matter of routine I've done it ever since I finished school The train back home again Undoubtedly, I must have read the evening paper then Oh yes, I'm sure my life was well within its usual frame The day before you came I must have opened my front door at eight o'clock or so And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go I'm sure I had my dinner watching something on TV There's not, I think, a single episode of Dallas that I didn't see I must have gone to bed Around a quarter after ten I need a lot of sleep And so I like to be in bed by then I must have read a while The latest one by Marilyn French or something in that style It's funny, but I had no sense of living without aim The day before you came And turning out the light I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night And rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain The day before you came
