Memo

Bring back yesterday tomorrow
Take the present tense away
Move last week into the not too distant future
Make tomorrow today

Memo, memo

Pay no attention while
Your mind is teasing with denial
Forefront, a subtle smile
Mirrored souls across the miles
Pen a memo to myself

Three hours morph into eternity
Minutes perpetuate to days
The emptiness inside
Like seconds are a lifetime
Make tomorrow today

Memo, memo

Pay no attention while
Your heart runs circles round your mind
Forefront, a soul divides
A tortured heart that bleeds you dry

I write myself a ghost reminder
To ask you to
Illuminate a bleak December through
A season new and try
Some redesign and fly
Me back to your time
Lead me home

Bring me yesterday
Make tomorrow today
Bring me yesterday
Invisible in bright white shade
Make tomorrow today
Sing to me in the fine warm rain
Take the present tense away
Black on white in whispered greys
Make tomorrow today
Take me back, take me back home again

Bring me yesterday
In bright white shade, in fine warm rain
Make tomorrow today
And sing to me, in whispered grey

Bring me yesterday
Tomorrow today
