The tomorrows can't come soon enough And the yesterdays pass too swiftly Differing between lies and love Is a gift no longer with me And still I cannot help But look ahead until the day When love's more than just a word And finally I'm on my way I still yearn to lay it out Put my heart on the line again To leave the places that I've traveled And find the one I've never been I'm restricted to running blind But running nevertheless Lest the pulse start to slow And fade into nothingness At times it seemed I'd never stop And I was nearly giving in No longer was I searching out But content with places I'd already been And suddenly there she was Real and no mirage I'd hoped I tried to reign my emotions in But my heart already had eloped To soon, it seems, to think these thoughts But I confess I can almost see Something real in her words And the places that I want to be Too soon to dream, common sense cries Maneuver slowly round the bend But as I open up my heart I confess she's falling in Where we'll go, I cannot say I can only speculate To continue on my way And leave tomorrow up to fate
