Maybe Tomorrow

Music & lyrics, 1976

As children we did run
Through the meadows and the streams
Our love as childish
As the morning sun
Your memory cherished
Destroyed, forgotten
To day we must bid farewell

How can I believe I loved you
In the morning
How could I have wished
You were mine
You're nothing but a flower in a field
Amongst millions
You're nothing but a memory that fades
As the sun begins to rise...

I brought you my affections
My words went unheard
I sang my songs
To the Goddess of Love
Your friends are not my friends
I'm left out in the cold
And now... you mean nothing to me

How can I believe I loved you
In the morning
How could I have wished
You were mine
You're nothing but a flower in a field
Amongst millions
You're nothing but a memory that fades
As the sun begins to rise...

Yet still I've always hoped
Our roads might meet some day
Perhaps not today
Nor tomorrow
The future holds our destiny
Our life ahead as one?
The future is the key...

Can't you see
I love the morning?
Can't you see
I love the sea?
You are the morning
The sunlight that sings to me
You are the sea
The summer breeze

And can't you see
I love you?
Can't you see
Can't you see?
You are everything to me
The sun
The moon
The starts

The sun
The moon
The stars
The stars
The morning...
