Take yesterday’s sorrow
And then from tomorrow
You borrow the hope of a smile
You watch love go under and listen to thunder
And wonder is it worth your while
And don’t you still smile
Your tears you must spill
Then but over the hill
And you just can’t resist that old ride
It always looks best where until you can get there
You’re always leaning to the greener side
And don’t you still smile
Though you don’t look as keen
You’re still chasing the dream
You know that it’s there
You know that it’s there
And yet there’s regret
for the time that we let slip away
when we could have done more
You watch love go under
The clap of the thunder
The empty pockets and the bolted doors
And don’t you still smile
