If tomorrow had a name
That name it would be lonely
Then it could join all my yesterdays

They'd sit around and talk
Of all the if's and only's
If only I hadn't let it slip away

The stars would come out at night
And join in the conversation
With their reasoning slightly out of tune

It's hard to tell what's going on
In some distant constellation
Although they've heard the whisper of the moon

Time holds an emptiness
That pulls the plug on youth
Adding more sadness to the mix of sorrow

I ask the path along the way
What is there to do
With loneliness given the same name as tomorrow
