Without a Past There Can Be No Tomorrow
Without a past there can be no tomorrow,
‘Though rooted to the earth we count each day
We have one life to live in love and sorrow.
The flowers of spring give way to ice and snow
The grass will either fade or turn to hay
Without a past there can be no tomorrow.
The great and powerful seem to never know
Our mortal fate, yet they too fade away
We have one life to live in love and sorrow.
In looking once again at what we know
We find the things we feared now hold less sway
Without a past there can be no tomorrow.
From youthful hope, in time your fear will grow
Yet from your fear refrain to run away
We have one life to live in love and sorrow.
Perhaps together, side be side, we’ll go
To wander where we could not go alone
Without a past there can be no tomorrow
We have one life to live in love and sorrow.
