Till Tomorrow - Dougie MacLean

Lift up your glass to tomorrow

Say your own sad farewells for today

But how can parting be such a sweet sorrow

When you can’t find the right words to say

Oh, I can see I will have to be moving

I’ve been standing out here for too long

But I know all the friends I’ll be losing

Oh, I will see them again further on

There’s a time when crying comes easy

When there’s more to be lost than be won

And I know that tomorrow might see me

On the other side of the sun

Well I’ve been looking in every direction

For the places that I used to know

But on making a closer inspection

I noticed I didn’t know which way to go

So we’ll finish our glasses together

Then we know we can no longer hide

And the silence will linger forever

Well, it is there and it helps you decide

That it’s not as it seemed in the stories

That you made when you wanted to dream

So you pick up your pieces before you find out

That you might have been left in between
