The Days We've Yet To Meet

Someone asked me where you were today
 I said it wasn't really up to me to say
 I know your head is sinking low
 And your heart beats like a stone
 But it will turn out for the better in the end
 And now remember you when you were 17
 Still had your hair and life was looking pretty sweet
 But yesterdays in hindsight are meant to be
 For it's tomorrow and the days we've yet to meet
 Yeah it's tomorrow and the days we've yet to meet
 ♪
 I read your face inside an open book
 It wasn't long before I took a second look
 But when the emptiness grows small
 And the words are all but gone
 There'll be a better cage to help you on the mend
 Turn back the time before the seconds disappear
 The same old clock will steal the minutes it now fears
 No telling when or how the hours still agree
 For it's tomorrow and the days we've yet to meet
 Yeah it's tomorrow and the days we've yet to meet
 ♪
 On my own and green as hell
 The first night that I saw you
 You told me then this is where and how
 We have so much more to give
 And we sang
 Lai, ladi ladi lai, dai dai dai, lai lai lai lai dai dai
 Lai, ladi ladi lai, lai lai lai
 And now remember you when you were 17
 Still had your hair and life was looking pretty sweet
 But yesterdays in hindsight are meant to be
 For it's tomorrow and the days we've yet to meet
 Yeah it's tomorrow and the days we've yet to meet
