Story Behind the Song
The motivation for this song comes from my feelings of depression over a relationship that suddenly ended. The lyrics tell a story about a woman who was deeply in love with a young man, but he leaves her to follow his dreams. The song was written in my dad's room. It took about three days to write, and a couple months to record. The vocals were laid down in two takes, at Les July's studio, Dreamland.
Lyrics
Today, Tomorrow, & Yesterday
Today I was missing you and my
head's been in a daze, you don't
realize what you do to me, 'cause
if you did you'd be amazed.
Today was very hard for me, without
you by my side, we used to be so close,
I always had you to confide.
CHORUS:
Today, tomorrow, and yesterday are
gone forever, only the memory still remains.
For whenever it rains, I'll always
think of you again.
Tomorrow, I can't face it, all
alone again with no one else to
turn to, I'm wondering where you've been.
Tomorrow, it came quickly, right before my eyes, got your letter in the mail, now my world is filled with darkened skies.
CHORUS:
Today, tomorrow, and yesterday, are gone forever, only the memory still remains.
For whenever it rains, I'll always think of you again.
Yesterday was crazy, stayed in bed
all day, with you gone from my
life, I don't know any other way.
Yesterday is gone now, just today
is all I have to show, your
memory still shines, so bright 'till
tomorrow, why'd you have to go?
CHORUS:
Today, tomorrow, and yesterday are gone forever,
Only the memory still remains.
Today, tomorrow, and yesterday are gone forever,
Today, tomorrow, and yesterday are gone forever,
Are gone forever, are gone forever, are gone forever...
