Day After Tomorrow by Tom Waits


I got your letter

Today

An' I miss you oh

So much here

 

I can't wait

To see you all

And I'm counting

The days dear

 

I still believe

That there's gold

At the end of the World

 

An' I'll come home

To Illinois

On the day after tomorrow

 

It is so hard

And it's cold here

And I'm tired of

Taking orders

 

And I miss old Rockford town

Up by the Wisconsin border

 

What I miss you won't believe

Shovellin' snowand

Rakin' leaves

 

And my plane will touch down

On the day after tomorrow

 

I close my eyes

Every night

And I dream

That I can hold you

They fill us full of lies

Everyone buys

'Bout what it means

To be a soldier

 

I still don't know

How I'm s'posed to

Feel

'Bout all the blood

That's been spilled

 

Will God on his throne

Get me back home

On the day after tomorrow?

 

You can't deny

The other side

Don't wanna die

Any more than we do

 

What I'm tryin' to say

Is don't they pray

To the same God

That we do?

 

Tell me

How does God choose?

Whose prayers does he refuse?

 

Who turns the wheel

Who throws the dice

On the day after tomorrow?

 

I am not fighting

For justice

I am not fighting

For freedom

 

I am fighting

For my life

And another day in

The World here

 

I just do what I've been told

We're just the

Gravel on the road

 

And only the lucky

Ones come home

On the day after tomorrow

 

And the summer

It too will fade

And with it brings

The winter's frost dear

 

And I know

We too are made

Of all the things

That we have lost here

 

I'll be twenty - one today

I been savin' all my pay

 

And my plane

Will touch down

On the day after tomorrow

 

And my plane

It will touch down

On the day after tomorrow
