Song For Tomorrow - ListenHere
Snowdrifts and pinetrees on the rim of the world,
on the edge of a lifetime ‘fore sand turns to pearl
when everything’s possible, dreams hang on a star,
when hope is this morning, and the answer ain’t far
from the question ‘cause the question wasn’t buried too deep
‘neath snowdrifts and pine trees and trails too steep,
here’s a song for tomorrow,
but you can sing it today,
‘bout yesterday’s echo,
about finding your way.
When words can’t catch memories,
when they don’t match at all,
close your eyes, take a listen
to all a song can recall
Roads winding, sleet blinding, through the mountains we drove
till we walked in our cabin, thawed our toes by the stove.
I remember the gray skies, I remember the cold,
and a baby boy wrapped up in swaddling clothes,
a new mother rocking and rolling to sleep
a song for tomorrow, a song for to keep
a song for tomorrow,
but you can sing it today,
‘bout yesterday’s echo,
about finding your way.
When words can’t catch memories,
when they don’t match at all,
close your eyes, take a listen
to all a song can recall
A little boy’s hands reaching up to the sky
towards the big hands that lift little boys up to fly.
Big hands hold promises to never let go
but you must change your shoes when your feet want to grow
And the dream that you’re dreaming’s worth two never dreamed
like a treasure uncovered ain’t a nickel redeemed like
a song for tomorrow,
but you can sing it today,
‘bout yesterday’s echo,
about finding your way.
When words can’t catch memories,
when they don’t match at all,
close your eyes, take a listen
to all a song can recall
