( written by Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan ) |
|
If you want money in your pocket |
|
And a top hat on your head |
|
A hot meal on your table |
|
And a blanket on your bed |
|
Well today is grey skies |
|
Tomorrow is tears |
|
You'll have to wait til yesterday is here |
|
I'm going to New York City |
|
And I'm leaving on a train |
|
And if you want to stay behind and wait |
|
Til I come back again |
|
Well today is grey skies |
|
And tomorrow is tears |
|
You'll have to wait til yesterday is here |
|
If you want to go |
|
Where the rainbows end |
|
You'll have to say goodbye |
|
All our dreams come true |
|
Baby up ahead |
|
And it's out where your memories lie |
|
Well the road's out before me |
|
The moon is shining bright |
|
What I want you to remember |
|
As I disappear tonight |
|
Today is grey skies |
|
Tomorrow is tears |
|
You'll have to wait til yesterday is here |
