lyrics

I'LL CRY TOMORROW

CHORUS today i bear the weight
of unbearable sorrow
if im not trampled by the night
i'll cry tomorrow

VERSE 1 Picking flowers in the springtime
Picking berries in the fall
Sometimes I cant control my emotions
Other times I feel nothing at all.
there is no refuge in the past
because all that was is lost
a road that led to nowhere
that should have reached the distant stars

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 2
some things hurt so bad
you cant even tell your closest friends
you try to keep looking straight ahead
but you are looking though a broken lens
i dont want strangers saying
they are sorry about my loss
thier intentions may be sincere
but these are just generic thoughts


BRIDGE ill cry tomorrow
but i wont do my crying here
ill drop my tears into the ocean
hoping your ghost will appear

VERSE 3 like an empty husk in a dust bowl drought
dried up in my dust bowl heart
like tumbleweeds at the end of the road
where the blind man left his cart
i saw the last leaves of autumn fall
And the rivers clogged with slush
a princess at her vanity
dropping her golden brush

today i bear the weight
of an unbearable sorrow
if im not trampled by the nightION 2
i'll cry tomorrow
