Words & Music by Bill Magill

lyrics

if I say hello
tomorrow, tomorrow
to a face that I don't know
tomorrow, tomorrow

put a needle in my arm
let it drip and I'll be gone
in a fog of summer holidays
then plant your kiss upon my head
lay me back upon our bed
and when I'm dead
the love you see
will never be
strange

if I don't recognize
tomorrow, tomorrow
the lips I've kissed a million times
tomorrow, tomorrow

bring me roses full in bloom
with photographs around our room
play some Tony Bennett, promise me
hold my hand while I slip away
then call the paramedics say
he's gone
but it was all on me
I couldn't bear to be
strange

make me laugh until I cry
remember all the reasons why
I drove you mad, my crazy ways
remember me in blazing shades of indigo and vivid red
not grey
I never want to fade to grey
I don't want to fade away
don't want to be
strange
