Twice Removed From Yesterday
By Robin Trower
"I think I've travelled here before,
And stood upon this velvet shore,
That looks out to the golden ship of Reason. "
The man took to the gentle life,
The wind cried to the skies,
I felt that I would cry as I was leaving.
Tomorrow is a step away,
Twice removed from yesterday's sadness.
Still I am a dream away,
Twice removed from yesterday's sweet madness.
"And in my dream, I thought I heard
The truth behind the spoken word.
I thought that I had something to believe in. "
But all too soon the dream was gone,
And in the dust that lingered on,
The tears that I'd she'd tried to free me.
Tomorrow is a step away,
Twice removed from yesterday's sadness.
Still I am a dream away,
Twice removed from yesterday's sweet madness.
