Counting on Tomorrow Lyrics

Ever in a stupor the rights are all wrong

I tried to keep up but still my mind's gone

I never made a promise that I could not keep

If that's the truth, then why do I weep

My mama left us but then she came back Not what she was but an effort at that

Now daddy won't forgive her and neither will she

And neither can we

Maybe that's why I weep

So I'm counting on tomorrow

Just like I did yesterday

I'm counting on tomorrow

Cause I just can't seem to face the day

My brother said everything would be fine

Stick to the path, don't show out of line

My path laid splayed maybe that is me

Perhaps there's no forgiving maybe that's why I weep

Maybe one of these days the rain will stop falling One of these days I'll find a way to give

If one of these days don't come maybe I won't take it

Then again, maybe one of these days might teach me

The proper way to live

And I don't want to keep on complaining Cause I don't want to bring you all down

You find the paradox of your problem Not even you

wants you around

So I'm counting on tomorrow Just like I did yesterday

I'm counting on tomorrow Cause I just can't seem

To face the day
