|
I met a man back in the future |
|
He was high then he was low |
|
You know his one consideration |
|
Should he come or should he go |
|
I met a girl she wants to give me |
|
The gift of living just for today |
|
Ignore the past ignore the future |
|
You're only going to wish your life away - say |
|
Chorus: |
|
Why can't today be tomorrow |
|
Why must there be yesterday |
|
Why can't today be tomorrow |
|
Oh tell me why please tell me why |
|
Are you wishing your life away? |
|
You know that life is no rehearsal |
|
You're never going to get it right |
|
It's inconsistent and it's imperfect |
|
It's going to give you sleepless nights |
|
And then you find you wake up nervous |
|
For every reason under the sun |
|
Life is full of indecision |
|
It's the same for everyone - say |
|
(chorus) |
|
Why can't today be tomorrow |
|
Why must there be yesterday - so tell me |
|
Why can't today be tomorrow - oh tell me |
|
Why can't today be tomorrow |
|
Are you wishing you're life away |
|
Why can't today be tomorrow? |
