Dream Tomorrow

(tim rice/john farrar)



I shall think it a dream tomorrow

I won't believe you returned

That once again i saw and touched you

And you're so unconcerned, unconcerned



You must have known that your cruel silence

Would be so hard to bear

And yet you let me wait

You let me wait and wonder

Neither here nor there, here nor there



I came back with just one intention

For one last look, one last taste of you

Revenge on those who still despise me

And take my own life too



But there's a long and twisted journey

Between this callous thought and deed

And you're a sweeter way to give me

All the things i need



Two ambitions coinciding

Will only happen now and then

Never hope or dream tomorrow

Will hope or dream tomorrow

Never hope or dream tomorrow

Will hope or dream tomorrow



How i hope it's no dream tomorrow

But i'm scared the light will fade

And today will be a vague recollection

Just a fool's escapade, escapade



I never cared much about the future

Yesterday was always there

So when you give me hope, hope or a promise

It just isn't fair, isn't fair



And plan, any calculation

Any plot or device at all

Runs into another's dream

Runs into a wall



No matter what premeditation

In our three score years and ten

There are only fractured moments

We'd want to live again



Two ambitions coinciding

Will only happen now and then

Never hope or dream tomorrow

Will restore your faith again

Never hope or dream tomorrow

Will hope or dream tomorrow
