Two Gallants - Two Days Short Tomorrow lyrics

My darling, my darling Are you as composed as the space you fill? You know there's little reason To demand what can't be given from the ears you fill And you aim your thoughts homeward As if you had a reason to be gone You were raised by sirens They taught you not to talk, all words are empty But they lent you their hats Screaming, "Bring back from the other side, some sympathy" And you spare no time to wonder When you claim to know the answer, why be wrong? So you put on your painted dress While the berdache takes your hand and tempts you homeward And so I've heard that you've gone wrong But is it OK, if I think of you? 'Cause you might just be what I'm counting on Just one more day and I must get through Well you've break just like the morning And if yesterday don't owe you, well who does then? And if you ever seek me out I'll be someone among the people you call has-beens Well you'd love to be a martyr, but you've got nothing to die for So you wait And wintertime is coming You can feel the cold drum drumming once again And so I've heard that you've gone wrong But is it OK, if I think of you? 'Cause you might just be what I'm counting on Just one more day and I must get through I love my country I love my country But I fear your mother I fear your mother She's growing older Or so they told her And flowers won't replace her You're my sheath, I'm your rapier And so I've heard that you've gone wrong But is it OK, if I think of you? 'Cause you might just be what I'm counting on Just one more day and I must get through And I must get through
