We'Re Leaving Tomorrow
It’s a little bit
After tomorrow
We’re leaving
We have to go soon
It’s noon and we’re
Feeling no sorrow
So set all the clocks
Back for always
Goodbyes and
No sighs just
A song
It’s wrong
How we know it
So quickly
The misses
And Mr.
So Long!
Like sunsets
And you bet
With manners
No plans
But we see you
And yet
We’re leaving
The meaning
Is after
With willows
That weep
While you
Slept
The street has
A sign
Like beginnings
The endings
Like pillows
That turn
You’ll learn
It’s the goodbyes
So often
That soften the
Sorrows that smiled
The miles is just
“Where are we going?”
Not knowing the
Mystery
The while
So tell me
“Hello”
With a heartache
We’ll make and then
We can go
To show us tomorrow
With whispers that
Borrow a reason
We’ll know
It’s always and
Everywhere
We like it
It gets so far
Then we cry
Like goodbye
I’m leaving tomorrow
If you know the reasons
Then why
