j a y o r t e g a - b e f o r e

I fell in love with today
She always fades away
Visits my thoughts when i call her name
But it's never the same
I fell in love with today
Her ever youthful way of
Dancing through my dreams persuades
Me that it will be okay
I know she's not mine to keep
The ocean's as dark as it's deep
I just hope I can fall into sleep
Before the rain
I fell in love with yesterday
She whispers in my ear to stay
Her tempting ends with a betrayal
And a debt i can never pay
I fell in love with yesterday
Her eyes and skin and hair a maze
She blurs the weeks into a haze
And she takes away my pain
But i know shes not mine to keep
The oceans yet darker yet deep
As the downpour starts to release
I'm left holding half of a dream again
Shattered to pieces and covered in creases
I beg God at least let me rest
Are you impressed that i handle myself so well
I've none i keep near me
I hope the rest fear me and that they forget of my tell
Did i pass your test
I swear i gave all that i could
I've never tried so hard and never come so far
To still not feel the way that i should
But i know she's not mine to keep
Dreams never do come true cheap
Still the oceans as dark as it's deep
I'm sorry i didn't quite manage to sleep
Before the rain
