Tomorrow Is A Harsh Mistress by The Mr. T Experience Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1999

This is no time or place to wake up
There are things to do and space to take up

I'm in love with something I dreamed about
I'm in love, but it's not really there
I'm in love with something I said in a prayer

Tomorrow is a harsh mistress
That I don't wanna wake up to
Which I force myself to do
I guess I'm a harsh mistress, too

I'm what you might call
The once and future nothing-at-all

I believe in something the cat dragged in
I believe, but I think it's a crime
I believe in what tasted all right at the time

Tomorrow is a harsh mistress
But that won't matter anyhow
'Cause I stayed in bed all day
Who's the harsh mistress now?
Hey yeah, that's right
Yesterday took all night
That's right, you bet
Yesterday's not over yet

With each passing day, a world destroyed
All the things I've worked so hard to avoid
The future's unwritten, so they say
And I'm just trying to keep it that way
Okay?
Okay?

[Guitar solo]

Tomorrow is a harsh mistress
That I don't wanna wake up to
Which I force myself to do
I guess I'm a harsh mistress, too

I'm in love with something I dreamed about
I believe, but it's not really there
I'm in love with something I dreamed about
I'm in love, but it's not really there
