Tomorrow
Mik Namlieh
Tomorrow, when the sun climbs o’er
The hip-bone of the sky,
And you rise unrested from your wrinkled bed,
Then I’ll be gone from here.
Tomorrow, when the dawn breaks golden
And wine sweet o’er the distance
Bright as every fairytale future yet unknown,
You will arise and know the future.
Tomorrow, when the world is new
And shadows have passed with the night
As is mankind’s promise and redemption,
You will look for shadows.
Tomorrow, when music reaches for all corners
Of this place, it will not find me,
And though its soft insistence is compelling
Its melody will be minor.
Tomorrow, when you wonder why
And what possessed your mind at rest
You will forget your restless dreams,
All wind and rain and bone.
Tomorrow, when I wander
When I leave this broken place,
I’ll find a road that leads to morning
And I’ll go that way alone.
Tomorrow, when I’ve left you
With a silence so unfamiliar,
I will carry my own silence
To a place you’ve never seen.
Tomorrow, when I’ve broken
Every tie that bound me close to you,
Then you’ll remember every dream,
And I’ll be gone from here.
