In our time

My face is lined
From wincing at your entering
Your presence wakens me
From the sweet melody of my dreams
I want to rest
And sleep away tomorrow’s yesterday
But today is what you live for
And I just can’t get my way
You don’t know
That I’d sooner wait for tomorrow
I can see
That you’re not so good at waiting
You won’t guess
That I still think of the yesterdays
As all the dreamers do,
In our time
My time is limited I know
I’ll ponder it in my silky silver dreams away from you.
And I know it can’t get better
But anything seems an improvement
On nothing else at all
You don’t know
That I’d sooner wait for tomorrow
I can see
That you’re not so good at waiting
You won’t guess
That I still think of the yesterdays
As all the dreamers do,
In our time
