Tomorrow's Sorrow

Tomorrow they are calling for rain

But tomorrow is so far away

Let’s not borrow tomorrow’s sorrow

Lest we waste the sunshine today

Tomorrow they are forecasting gloom

Poisoning laughter with fears

But let’s not borrow tomorrow’s sorrow

Before today disappears

Tomorrow they are predicting woe

And skies that are dismal and bleak

Oh, let’s not borrow tomorrow’s sorrow

While sunshine kisses our cheek

Today is a day of grace

Today is the only now

So let’s not borrow tomorrow’s sorrow

Lest we miss today somehow
