Bruce Cockburn Clocks Dont Bring Tomorrow Lyrics

Clocks Dont Bring Tomorrow Lyrics

You tell me tomorrow may be coming Sometimes I wonder if it hasn't already been
But like the firebreathing rebel I'm not sure what I mean All I know is you're
not me and that you'll never be 



He tells me the future is not to
be believed in "Don't waste your wishes on what hasn't already been" But like
the strong arm policeman He's not sure what he means All he knows is he can't
see what he will come to be 



He says if we burn up the roof from
above us We surely will see the light and maybe more But like the burnt out
hooker We'll only see down to the floor All we know is that we're here until we
are set free
