Oh How I Wish For Tomorrow
Into the day.......
I bleed for death and pray for forgiveness
But I find only pain and sorrow
Oh how I wish for tomorrow
The summer's day feels like winter
Cold and deadly to those who live it alone
It is not by force but by choice
That I refuse to return home
I have no dreams of the future
Only memories of the past
And they fill my days with only pain and sorrow
Oh how I wish for tomorrow
I shall die with you in my heart
But not by my side
For I refuse to let you watch
Your love die
