The Days We've Yet To Meet - Flogging Molly

Someone asked me where you were today

I said it wasn’t really up to me to say

I know your head is sinking low

And your heart beats like a stone

But it will turn out for the better in the end

And I remember you when you were 17

Still had your hair and life was looking pretty sweet

But yesterday in hindsight are meant to be

For it’s tomorrow and the days we’ve yet to meet

Yeah it’s tomorrow and the days we’ve yet to meet

I read your face inside an open book

It wasn’t long before I took a second look

But when the emptiness grows small

And the words are all but gone

There’ll be a better cage to help you on the mend

Turn back the time before the seconds disappear

The same old clock will steal the minutes it now fears

No telling when or how the hour still agree

For it’s tomorrow and the days we’ve yet to meet

Yeah it’s tomorrow and the days we’ve yet to meet

On my own and green as hell

The first night that I saw you

You told me then this is where and how

We have so much more to give

And we sing…

Lai, ladi ladi lai, dai dai dai, lai lai lai lai dai dai

Lai, ladi ladi lai, dai dai dai

And I remember you when you were 17

Still had your hair and life was looking pretty sweet

But yesterdays in hindsight are meant to be

For it’s tomorrow and the days we’ve yet to meet

Yeah it’s tomorrow and the days we’ve yet to meet
