lyrics

SAY MY NAME (THERE IS NO TOMORROW)
(featuring the om of Jesse Elliott)

Say my name.
There is no tomorrow.
Say my name out loud.
Say my name out loud.

Try it out on your tongue
every once in a while.
Until you wear my name out,
say my name out loud.
Say my name out loud.

My photo in the fire.
In the fire, sweating tears I am.
I am putting on years,
pushing pins on to cushions,
pawning needles to the pines.
You were cut from a place on the cloth
that was near to mine.
Close, but not quite.

Give me your position
I will let you see my speed.
For today and for tomorrow,
a sheet of midnight inbetween.
At the top of the clock,
the long hand and short hand
finally, finely meet.

There is no tomorrow.
