Tomorrow Is Today (Live April 1972 At Sigma Sound Studios, Wmmr Radio, Philadelphia, Pa)

I've been livin' for the moment
But I just can't have my way
And I'm afraid to go to sleep
'Cause tomorrow is today

People tell me life is sweeter
But I don't hear what they say
Nothing comes to change my life
So tomorrow is today

I don't care to know the hour
'Cause it's a-passing anyway
I don't have to see tomorrow
'Cause I saw it yesterday

So I listen for an answer
But the feeling seems to stay
And what's the use of always dreaming
When tomorrow is today, mmm

Still I'm a-waiting for the morning
But it feels so far away
And you don't need the love I'm giving
So tomorrow is today

Oh, my, goin' to the river
Gonna take a ride and the lord will deliver me
Made my bed, I'm gonna lie in it
If you don't come, I'm sure gonna die in it
Too late, too much givin'
Seen a lot of life and I'm damn sick of livin' it
Gonna keep on a-hopin' that you're gonna pass my way
And some day if your dreams are leavin' you
I'll still believe in you
Ooh
Yeah

I don't care to know the hour
'Cause it's passing anyway
I don't have to see tomorrow
'Cause I saw it yesterday

Though I'm living, oh, and I'm singing
And although my hands still play
Soon enough it will all be over
'Cause tomorrow is today
Yeah, yeah
Doo-do-doo-doo

Thank you
Goodnight
