Tomorrow Down

Young one rises from the nest

Bid him the farewell and all the best

With all the tools to learn and grow

And all the right from wrong you know



Now and then, it’s hard to choose

Which way to go

Trust a chosen few, don’t trust yourself

When you’re low



Once in a while when liberty smiles

You’re free to pick up the pieces

Then you’re squeezing the stone

Trying to find your way home



But don’t drag tomorrow down



The heart of trust is well and good

You run the risk that’s understood

Trusting from the mind just might

Keep you up with the doubt all night



Find yourself love

Or hope that it finds you

Before you’re through

The best that you can give

Is the best of you

Before you’re through



Once in a while when liberty smiles

You’re free to pick up the pieces

Then you’re squeezing the stone

Trying to find your way home



But don’t drag tomorrow down



Well, in light of it

And in spite of it

We all find our way home

The periphery

Is distracting me

That’s no way to be

Look how much you have grown



Once in a while when liberty smiles

You’re free to pick up the pieces

Stay single file

And give us a smile

Everyone picks up the pieces

’til we’re squeezin’ the stone

Trying to find our way home



But don’t drag tomorrow down

But don’t drag tomorrow down

But don’t drag
