Every day that's yesterday

EVERY DAY THAT’S YESTERDAY (D A D G C E)

I didn’t think I’d write a song today. I just can’t seem to stay away.

From what, I don’t know. From what, I don’t know.

 

I didn’t think I’d see the sun today. I thought it was supposed to rain.

I was wrong, oh no. I was wrong, oh no.

 

And now these words from Li Bai seem to fit right:

“Every day that’s yesterday I cannot get to stay.

It abandons me and goes.

Every day that is today is full strife and woe.

It troubles my heart so.

In this world a man’s life falls short of his aspirations.

Early tomorrow I will loosen my hair and sail away in a skiff.”
