'Til The Day After

(album: The American Dream - 1970)

Oh
Oh no, they never learn

Oh no, all is worried
'Til the day after
Kills their laughter
With the disaster
And then they started crying, "It's too late!
Why couldn't we foresee it, heaven's sake?"

Oh, no one can see past tomorrow
Oh, no one can see the tears and sorrow

Oh, no one is thinking
'Til the boat's sinking
Then they start screaming
"Help me, help me"
And at the last minute, break down and start to pray
They should've tried it long before today

Oh, no one can see past tomorrow
Oh, no one can see the tears and sorrow
Oh no, they never learn

(They never learn)
'Til the day after (show no concern)
'Til the day after
No, no one is worried (no no, no one is worried)
'Cause no one is thinking (no no, no one is thinking)
And no one is sorry
'Cause no one is crying

Oh, no one is crying
'Til someone's dying
Then they start sighing
Then they start lying
Instead of him, why couldn't it be me?
Oh, why was I so blind I couldn't see?

Oh, no one can see past tomorrow
Oh, no one can see the tears and sorrow
Oh no, they never learn
